Bug Description
The maximum possible value for VNI should be increased from 1048575
(2^20 - 1) to 16777215 (2^24 - 1) in schema and UI.
The old maximum was based on the assumption that only the top 20 bits
of the 3-byte label in the EVPN route would be used as VNI, analogous
to how MPLS labels are encoded/decoded. However, the EVPN+VXLAN spec
now clarifies that all 24 bits are to be used.
The BGP signaling changes have been implemented via bug 1464781.
Only implement post 2.20-fcs since this will need end-to-end testing.
