[LLDP] Skip NICs that say they are ready but are unreadable.
While listening for LLDP packets, if one of the sockets marks itself as ready to read then our code will try to read data from that socket, but if something goes wrong while reading that data then it causes IPA to raise out of the loop skipping any other of the other NICs which might have worked. This patch adds code to catch and LOG any exception that is raised while we are trying to read data from one of the sockets so that we can proceed to process all the NICs.
