Prevent dropping ARP packets
JIRA: SAMPLEVNF-152
When system is overloaded, ARP packets were sometimes dropped, as any
other packets.
This was causing two issues:
- The count of TX non dataplane packets was wrong
- If many consecutive ARP packets were dropped, the underlying switch might
see its ARP timer expiring, causing performance degradation (packets being
broadcasted).
ARP packets are now always sent as no-drop.
