Create node network route

Add a route to the node routing table. For static routes, the
route_type, interface_id, netmask, and destination are required parameters.
For default routes, the route_type, gateway address, and interface_id
are required. For blackhole routes, the route_type and destination are
required. All other parameters are optional. When you add a static route,
the scope and route_id are created automatically. When you add a default or
blackhole route, the route_id is created automatically. The route_id is
read-only, meaning that it cannot be modified. All other properties can be
modified by deleting and readding the route.
