With this change, one lisp-gpe interface is created per vrf/overlay
tenant and its tx node is used as encapsulator (or tunnel ingress). For
all intents and purposes, the tx node inherits all functions previously
performed by the lisp-gpe-encap node and it maintains said node's
position in lisp-gpe's data-path graph. Chiefly, this opens the
possibility to chain interface features, like IPSec, transparently with
LISP. Furthermore, it brings basic data plane support for vrfs and LISP
instance-ids (or virtual network instances as per RFC7364).
Other changes include improvements to lisp-gpe enable and disable
sequences and corresponding API/VAT fixes.

vpp_restart solves the problem of restarting vpp and not exiting until
the new vpp instance is sufficiently established to allow immediate
binary API connections. The point is to avoid using arbitrary "sleep
N" commands e.g. in CSIT shell scripts.
We send SIGTERM to the current vpp process, and expect / depend on the
process-monitor du jour to remove the vpp-api shared-memory segment.
vpp_restart exits w/ status 0 if all is well, non-zero upon failure.
In trying to make vpp_restart reliable, we discovered a
recently-introduced heap corruption bug in .../dpdk/init.c, which
caused vpp to crash on startup once every 20 times on a particular
rig.
If possible, we should check /var/log/syslog for evidence of
unexpected multiple restarts during regression-testing.

Generating a new MAC address everytime vpp reboots can quickly
become cumbersome (e.g. in test scenarios).
This commit allows vhost mac addresses to be configured
manually.

Include node names and graph arcs. Prep work for uploading node
runtime data, so the latter can be reported in a comprehensible
manner.
