Disable the flow processing for Neighbour Advertisements

The neighbour request packets are typically Multicast packets and there
is no flow processing for these. When a neighbour request is converted
to neighbour advertisement, we continue to use the same packet buffer
and same packet flags for this advertisement too. This ends up in not
creating a flow for neighbour advertisement too as the original packet
is marked as multicast packet. But the fix we gave
https://review.opencontrail.org/#/c/24973/ for bug: #1461882 for V6
resulted in creating new packet flags for advertisement and this is
resulting in flow being created. The flow processing is dropping the
response as the neighbour advertisement should have ideally come from
different interface.

We can fix this issue either by manipulating the source interface to
match the interface on which neighbour is falling so that flow
processing succeeds or by disabling the flow processing for
advertisements.

The fix now disables the flow processing for advertisements
