Bug Description

See the code at:

https://github.com/CanonicalLtd/netplan/blob/fad12c1/netplan/cli/ovs.py#L52

The value is passed down to ovs-vsctl. In the best case, it does nothing. In the worse case, the value is not a valid key and you get an error (for instance, if the value contains a `:`). In the worst case the value is another key in the table and we delete an entry for no good reason.

For my use case, I changed Line 52 mentioned in your description to the following:

subprocess.check_call([OPENVSWITCH_OVS_VSCTL, 'remove', type, iface, column, key])

It now works for MY scenario, but not sure it would work for all.
