Add support for modifying saAmfRank of SaAmfSIRankedSU class.

This is useful in the following case. You have two geographically separated 
sites. You want to have the concept of an active site, and a standby site. You 
also have 2 nodes in each site (4 total), because you want to always fail to 
the other local node if possible. Only if you can't fail locally do you want to 
fail to the other site.

This can be accomplished using an N-way service group across the two sites. You 
can configure 1 SI which is active on one node and standby on the other 3. You 
can setup the 2 SUs in site A, one on each node, to have the same rank in 
SaAmfSIRankedSU objects. You set up the other 2 SUs at the other site, one on 
each node, to have a lower rank. This way failovers will always have local 
preference.

When a site failover occurs, this is where modifying saAmfRank is needed. Now 
you need to change the rank of the SUs in the previously active site, so that 
AMF doesn't fail back to the other site before trying to fail locally.
