This commit adds a new command to allow the user to switch
the active action implementation at runtime. A probe function
is executed before switching the implementation, to ensure
the CPU is capable of running the ISA required.

Usage:
  $ ovs-appctl dpif-netdev/action-impl-set scalar

This commit also adds a new command to retrieve the list of available
action implementations. This can be used by to check what implementations
of actions are available and what implementation is active during runtime.

Usage:
   $ ovs-appctl dpif-netdev/action-impl-get

Added separate test-case for ovs-actions get/set commands:
1023: PMD - ovs-actions configuration
