revalidator: Allow min-revalidator-pps to be 0.
Today the minimum value for this setting is 1. This patch allows it to be 0, meaning not checking pps at all, and always do revalidation. This is particularly useful for environments where some of the applications with long-lived connections may have very low traffic for certain period but have high rate of burst periodically. It is desirable to keep the datapath flows instead of periodically deleting them to avoid burst of packet miss to userspace. When setting to 0, there may be more datapath flows to be revalidated, resulting in higher CPU cost of revalidator threads. This is the downside but in certain cases this is still more desirable than packet misses to user space.
