Lubosz Kosnik 185d6cbc64 Add support for Keepalived VRRP health check
Adds functionality to generate bash script which verifies health of current
keepalived instance by pinging all available and configured GW addresses.
This functionality supports IPv4 and IPv6 by detecting needed ping version
using netaddr.

DocImpact:
Added a new parameter to 'l3_agent.ini' named
'ha_vrrp_health_check_interval' which is by default set to 0 (disabled).
Values > 0 designate health check functionality should be enabled.
Requires allowed ICMP ECHO_REQUEST because that is disabled by default.

features:
- Keepalived VRRP health check functionality to enable verification of
connectivity from the "master" router to all gateways. Activation of this
feature enables gateway connectivity validation and rescheduling of the
"master" router to another node when connectivity is lost. If all routers
lose connectivity to the gateways, the election process will be repeated
round-robin until one of the routers restores its gateway connection. In
the mean time, all of the routers will be reported as "master".
