Updated the bridge-utils software to handle:
* Greater than 32 bridges; now unlimited as far as the command
is concerned.
* Follow version convention: brctl -V
* More complete and robust error handling, checks for errors
when initializing and reading bridge information
Known pre-existing issues:
* Mixed 64bit/32bit ioctl handling was incorrect and removed.
Will be replaced by correct code later. I.e for now still
broken.
* Still has limit of 256 ports per bridge until STP is updated.
* Command reads in all the bridge information (even if it doesn't
need it).

There is no reason to update existing 2.4 systems, this is really intended
for 2.6 based distros.
