    [neutron] Adjust neighbour table thresholds

    When clouds have a large number of hosts, the default size of the ARP
    cache is too small. The cache can overflow, which means that the system
    has no way to reach some IP addresses.

    Increasing threshold limits addresses the situation, in a reasonably
    safe way (the maximum impact is 5MB or so of additional RAM used).
