Periodic scan and probe of IP neighbors to maintain neighbor pools
Scan IPv4 and IPv6 neigbor pool entries once a minute to keep them up to date. The neighbor of an entry is probed if its time-stamp is older than 1 minute. If the neighbor respond, its time-stamp will be updated. If there is no response from a neighbor, its entry will be deleted when the time-stamp of the entry become more than 4 minutes old. Static neighbor entries are not probed nor deleted. Implemented CLI and API to enable and disable priodic scan of IPv4, IPv6 or both types of IP neighbors. CLI is "ip scan-neighbor" and API is "ip_scan_neighbor_enable_disable". Other IP neighbor scan parameters can also be changed from their defaults via the CLI/API.
