Currently, the oxm_length field is always composed with zero value because OpenFlow Spec does not still clarify whether its value should be doubled if the hasmask bit is set.
This patch fixes to compose the oxm_length value with the payload length because Open vSwitch strictly checks the oxm_length which contained in the OFPAT_COPY_FIELD action (introduced at OpenFlow 1.5), and this causes the OFPT_ERROR messages then flows will not be installed. Note: This patch does not backport this fix to ofproto_v1_3_parser.py and ofproto_v1_4_parser.py because those modules are tested based on the implementation of "linc/of_protocol" which supposes the oxm_length is always zero. Also OFPOxmId should be rarely serialized at the controller side when using OpenFlow 1.3 or 1.4.
