[ovs-dev] [PATCH ovn 1/2] chassis: Fix the way encaps are updated for a chassis record.

ovn-controller always stores the last configured system-id/chassis-id in
memory regardless if the connection to the SB is up or down. This is OK
as long as the change can be committed successfully when the SB DB
connection comes back up.

This commit changes the way we search for a "stale" chassis record in the
SB to cover the above mentioned case. Also, in such cases there's no need
to recreate the Encaps, it's sufficient to update the chassis_name field.

Fixes: 5344f24ecb1a ("ovn-controller: Refactor chassis.c to abstract the string parsing")
