libnm-core: interpret ovs-patch.peer as an interface name

Browse source 
The 'peer' property of ovs-patch is inserted into the 'options' column
of the ovsdb 'Interface' table. The ovs-vswitchd.conf.db man page says
about it:

  options : peer: optional string
    The name of the Interface for the other side of the patch. The
    named Interface’s own peer option must specify this Interface’s
    name. That is, the two patch interfaces must have reversed name
    and peer values.

Therefore, it is wrong to validate the peer property as an IP address
and document it as such.
