Add support for zero packet loss in PROX L3 mode.
In L3 mode, prox is extracting IP destination address in the packets.
It uses this destination address to find the MAC address.
If the MAC address is not found, it sends a ARP request.
It also sends ARP request when it realizes that some timeout expired.
However, PROX was using the mbuf of the existing packets (to be forwarded)
to send the ARP. This resulted in packet loss.
Now PROX is generating ARP requests using mbuf from an ARP mempool.
Some clean up was also done.
