    More accurate agent restart state transfer
    
    Ovs-agent can be very time-consuming in handling a large number
    of ports. At this point, the ovs-agent status report may have
    exceeded the set timeout value. Some flows updating operations
    will not be triggerred. This results in flows loss during agent
    restart, especially for hosts to hosts of vxlan tunnel flow.
    
    This fix will let the ovs-agent explicitly, in the first rpc loop,
    indicate that the status is restarted. Then l2pop will be required
    to update fdb entries.

Title:
  [L2][scale issue] ovs-agent meets unexpected flow lost

Status in neutron:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Ovs-agent will lost some flows during restart, for instance, flows to DHCP or L3, tunnel flows. These lost flows can sometimes cause VM failed to boot or dataplane down.
  When subnets or security group ports quantity reaches 2000+, this issue can be seen in high probability.
