Increment Nexthop ref count atomically

Right now, the NH's refcount is not incremented atomically as reference
to NH is always taken from a single thread in nelink context. This is
becuase Routes, Labels, and other NH's access an NH only when Agent
performs config changes. But with data path mac learning in place
because of PBB, reference to NH, esp L2 Mutlicast NH, happens from
multiple threads leading to requirement incrementing it atomically. Not
doing it causes the ref count to go bad for that particular NH and
results in double free of NH.
