Extend the ovs-dpctl.py flow parser to support vlan() and encap()
match strings. vlan() accepts tci=, vid=, pcp=, and cfi=
parameters and generates the OVS_KEY_ATTR_VLAN attribute with a TCI
value in network byte order. encap() parses nested flow strings
and returns OVS_KEY_ATTR_ENCAP with inner key attributes as a
recursive NLA container.
The encap nla_map type is changed from "none" to "nested" so that
pyroute2 recursively encodes the inner flow key attributes. The
VLAN nla_map type is changed from "uint16" to "be16" to match the
kernel's big-endian wire format.

Add a test for the OVS datapath POP_VLAN action. The test uses
the VLAN sub-interface of a veth pair to generate 802.1Q tagged
frames and verifies that pop_vlan correctly strips the VLAN tag
before delivery via pcap frame capture.
The test has two verifications:
- Negative: forward tagged frames without pop_vlan, verify the
VLAN tag is still present on the egress interface.
- Positive: apply pop_vlan, verify the tag is removed and an
untagged ICMP echo request arrives at the egress interface.
Static ARP entries avoid the complexity of VLAN-tagged ARP
resolution (the egress side has no VLAN sub-interface and cannot
process tagged ARP).
