From: Numan Siddique <num...@ovn.org>

This patch caches the logical flow expr tree for each logical flow. This
cache is stored as an hashmap in the output_flow engine data. When a logical
flow is deleted, the expr tree for that lflow is deleted in the
flow_output_sb_logical_flow_handler().

Below are the details of the OVN resource in my setup

No of logical switches - 49
No of logical ports    - 1191
No of logical routers  - 7
No of logical ports    - 51
No of ACLs             - 1221
No of Logical flows    - 664736

On a chassis hosting 7 distributed router ports and around 1090
port bindings, the no of OVS rules was 921162.

Without this patch, the function add_logical_flows() took ~15 seconds.
And with this patch it took ~10 seconds. There is a good 34% improvement
in logical flow processing.
