netifd: vxlan: handle srcport range
This adds adds the ability to set the source port range for vxlan
interfaces.
By default vxlans will use a random port within the ephermal range as
source ports for packets. This is done to aid scaleability within a
datacenter.
But with these defaults it's impossible to punch through NATs or
traverese most stateful firewalls easily. One solution is to fix the
srcport to the same as dstport.
If only srcportmin is specified, then srcportmax is set in a way that
outgoing packets will only use srcportmin.
If a range is to be specified, srcportmin and srcportmax have to be
specified. srcportmax is exclusive.
If only srcportmax is specified, the value is ignored and defaults are
used.
