ovn-northd wakes up continuously from poll_block(). This issue can be reproduced
in the sandbox with the below commands

ovn-nbctl lr-add lr0
ovn-nbctl ls-add public
ovn-nbctl lrp-add lr0 lr0-public 00:00:20:20:12:13 172.168.0.100/24
ovn-nbctl lsp-add public public-lr0
ovn-nbctl lsp-set-type public-lr0 router
ovn-nbctl lsp-set-addresses public-lr0 router
ovn-nbctl lsp-set-options public-lr0 router-port=lr0-public
ovn-nbctl lrp-set-gateway-chassis lr0-public chassis-1 20

This issue is seen after the commit [1], which makes use of the function -
sbrec_port_binding_update_nat_addresses_addvalue() to add a value to
Port_Binding.nat_addresses column.

Looks like the IDL client code is sending the transactions to the ovsdb-server 
repeatedly
to update the Port_Binding.nat_addresses even though the Southbound DB has 
updated
the column when this function is used. The actual bug seems to be in the IDL 
client code
and that needs to be fixed. This patch as a quick fix, fixes ovn-northd's 
continuous loop
by not using this function, instead making use of 
sbrec_port_binding_set_nat_addresses().

The below messages are seen continuously when the ovn-nortdh debug logs are 
enabled.

The OpenStack CI tests for networking-ovn is frequently failing few tests after 
this
commit. The failure seems to be related to timing issues as ovn-northd is 
hogging
the CPU continuously. We are also seeing travis CI test failures after this 
commit.
