Hi Huisong,

Some of the patches above adds new features to the 'features.rst', but
features.rst document describes features that drivers mark in feature
list in .ini file, all features are listed in the 'default.ini'.

When a new feature is added into 'default.ini', it can be described in
'features.rst' and later all driver .ini files should be updated to
reflect if they support this feature or not.


And I think no need to document all features, but ones can be important
enough or differentiating features for users to know, this line is not
easy to draw, so perhaps we can use community consensus to select.

In this patch following features are added:
- Link speed configuration
- Traffic manager
- Device private information dump
- Loopback configuration


I think 'Traffic manager' can be a new feature, but I am not sure about
rest. It would be nice to get more comments.
