Current OVS intercepts and processes all BFD packets, thus VM-2-VM
BFD packets get lost and the recipient VM never sees them.

This patch fixes it by only intercepting and processing BFD packets
destined to a configured BFD instance, and other BFD packets are made
available to the OVS flow table for forwarding.

This patch keeps BFD's backward compatibility.
