[ovs-dev] [RFC PATCH ovn] binding: Do not try to incrementally process former VIF updates.

If a Port_Binding corresponding to a VIF changes in the Southbound to
represent a port that cannot be bound locally (e.g., localport,
localnet, patch) then ovn-controller should not try to process this
update incrementally.  If it would try, it would need to first remove
cleanup all previous lbindings from memory which is not trivial.

Failing to do so might cause ovn-controller to access already freed
memory later on.

However, because this is an unlikely scenario, to avoid over
complicating the incremental processing engine, we now rely to a regular
recompute when such Port_Binding updates are detected.

This implies though that when the runtime_data I-P node is updated we
also need to recompute physical flows to make sure that flows for
specific types of ports, e.g., localports, are properly installed.

To reproduce the issue, this patch also modifies the "ovn -- 2 HVs, 1
lport/HV, localport ports" test.  More tests are added for all types of
port bindings that shouldn't be claimed locally.

Fixes: 354bdba51abf ("ovn-controller: I-P for SB port binding and OVS interface in runtime_data.")

Note: sending this patch as RFC for now because I'm not completely sure
if the physical_run() call in the I-P engine can be avoided.
