Fix adding a route with gateway failing
When adding a VXLAN tunnel that connects to a VTEP residing in a
different IP network, the tunnel source ip needs to be selected by
best fit (longest matching netmask), based on the destination VTEP
ip, and the specific route's gateway ip.
A bug in ovs-router.c made the source ip to be decided only based on
the destination ip: Thus, if all source ips available to OVS and the
destination ip are in different ip networks - no source ip is
selected, and an error is returned.
This error accorded when using OVS-DPDK and configuring a VXLAN
tunnel, where source ip and destination ip are in different
networks, and a gateway ip was in place for the specific route.
The fix tries to match a source ip based on the gateway ip, if no
matching source ip was found based on the destination ip - This way,
the gateway becomes the first hop only if the tunnel crosses between ip
networks.
