Description
Although we have the ability to configure port speed settings via Dendrite, this is not yet represented in our database (AFAICT).
We should record FEC as well if we aren't already doing so.

Research direction
Start by tracing how Dendrite's PortSpeed configuration reaches Nexus and how switch configuration is represented in the database. Determine where port speed and FEC should be recorded, then verify that both values are persisted and retrievable.
