Improve mechanism for using loopback interface as BVI for BDs
When loopback interface is configured as BVI, instead of changing its
output node from loopN-output to l2-input, the loopN-output node is now
kept while its next tx node is changed from ethernet-input to l2-input.
The packet setup previously done in bvi_to_l2 as part of l2-input is now
performed in the loop output node.
This change adds an extra node in the BVI output path but provides the
following improvements:
1. IP address/route created on loopback prior to it being configured as
BVI will still work properly. The requirement to (re)configure IP/route
on loopback after it is configured as BVI is removed.
2. The output stats for loopback interfaces are always provided irrespective
of their BVI configuration.
3. The loopback-BVI output stats can be batch updated outside the packet
loop in output node, instead of per packet update in l2-input node,
making l2-input node more efficient for BVI packets.
4. Restore original node property as implemented in node.c function
vlib_node_add_next_with_slot() where next node indices stored in next
slots of each node will remain unique.
5. Packet trace for BVI output includes loopN output node which provides
useful packet data.
