  ofproto: Fix for ovs-vswitchd crash on flow-mod with unsupported action

Problem Description:
The ovs-vswitchd is crashing while invoking flow-mod with upsupported
action(Tested with ovs2.10.1)

Steps to recreate:
Step 1) Create a flow
ovs-ofctl add-flow switch1
priority=228,dl_type=0x0800,dl_vlan="600",in_port=25,actions=output:ALL
This step is successful.

Step 2) Invoke flow-mod with incorrect contents.
ovs-ofctl mod-flows switch1
priority=228,dl_type=0x0800,dl_vlan="600",in_port=25,actions=output:ALL,mod_vlan_vid:50,mod_vlan_pcp=6,mod_nw_tos=16

In the above example, the ofproto provider I have, will return error for
rule_construct as set_fields come after Output.

However the OVS is ignoring the error (The return value of add_flow_init
is ignored in modify_flow_init_strict) and eventually the ovs-vswitched
crashes.

Crash backtrace:
-----------------------

Thread 1 "ovs-vswitchd" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
