[PG] What is the advantage of moving from NVGRE to GRE-in-UDP, as opposed to 
moving to VXLAN? VXLAN has much better ecosystem support so one would 
immediately benefit from that, no? Outside of network virtualization GRE-in-UDP 
may have use cases and I have never questioned those as I am not familiar with 
those.
