ofproto: Increase default flow-eviction-threshold.
The flow-eviction-threshold presents a trade off between the expense of maintaining large numbers of datapath flows, and the benefit of avoid unnecessary flow misses. In some large Open vSwitch deployments, we've seen the previous default flow eviction threshold negatively impact performance with reasonably typical traffic patterns. This patch increases the default to a level which should represent a better trade off: still relatively safe, but much more amenable to large numbers of long lived flows.
