net: openvswitch: add last-action drop reason
Create a new drop reason subsystem for openvswitch and add the first drop reason to represent last-action drops. Last-action drops happen when a flow has an empty action list or there is no action that consumes the packet (output, userspace, recirc, etc). It is the most common way in which OVS drops packets. Implementation-wise, most of these skb-consuming actions already call "consume_skb" internally and return directly from within the do_execute_actions() loop so with minimal changes we can assume that any skb that exits the loop normally is a packet drop.
