Test: Add test case for Load Balancer plugin
This adds a basic test for the four existing encap modes
for the load balancer plugin.
- ip4 over gre4
- ip4 over gre6
- ip6 over gre4
- ip6 over gre6
Apparently, scapy does not support GRE and IPv6 combinations.
Hence, those tests do send packets through VPP, but only
ip4 over gre4 output is actually parsed and verified.
