[ovs-dev] [PATCH v6 3/8] dpif-netdev: Skip encap action during datapath execution

In this patch we check if action processing (apart from OUTPUT action),
should be skipped for a given dp_netdev_flow. Specifically, we check if
the action is TNL_PUSH and if it has been offloaded to HW, then we do not
push the tunnel header in SW. The datapath only executes the OUTPUT action.
The packet will be encapsulated in HW during transmit.
