What I did
Added neighbor cache in nbrmgrd to handle neighbor refresh
Neighsyncd receives neighbor table events from kernel and adds the neighbor in NEIGH_REFRESH_TABLE.
Nbrmgrd subscribes NEIGH_REFRESH_TABLE events and adds/deletes neighbor entries in neighbor cache.
While adding/updating neighbor entries, current time and the refresh timeout is also stored, which are then used for timeout handling.
Why I did it
Below PR has the details.
sonic-net/SONiC#1043
How I verified it
There are no new processing in OA based on this change, hence no update to Syncd/SAI.
Verified with syslogs that the neighbors are added/deleted in Nbrmgrd neighbor cache.
