When multiple chassis are fighting for the same port (requested-chassis
is not set, e.g. for gateway ports), they may produce an unreasonable
number of chassis field updates in a very short time frame (hundreds of
updates in several seconds). This puts unnecessary load on OVN as well
as any db notification consumers trying to keep up with the barrage.

This patch throttles port claim attempts so that they don't happen more
frequently than once per 0.5 seconds.

---
v1: initial version
v2: don't postpone claim when port is unclaimed (chassis == nil)
v2: don't postpone claim as an additional chassis for a multichassis
port
v2: fixed memory corruption when modifying sset while iterating over
it
v3: rebased to resolve a git conflict
v4: added opportunistic cleanup for claimed_ports shash
v4: made a debug message in the new test case more intelligible
v5: fixed a memleak in cleanup_claimed_port_timestamps (node->data not
    freed)
v6: rebased, added Mark's ack.
v6: removed poll_wait calls from engine handler, moved them to
    binding_wait.
