datapath: Allow a packet with no input port to omit OVS_KEY_ATTR_IN_PORT.
When ovs-vswitchd executes actions on a synthesized packet, that is, on a packet that is not being forwarded from any particular port but is being generated by ovs-vswitchd itself or by an OpenFlow controller (using a OFPT_PACKET_OUT message with an in_port of OFPP_NONE), there is no good choice for the in_port to pass to the kernel in the flow in the OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE message. This commit allows ovs-vswitchd to omit the in_port entirely in this case. This fixes a bug in OFPT_PACKET_OUT: using an in_port of OFPP_NONE would cause the packet to be dropped by the kernel, since that's an invalid input port.
