ofproto-dpif: Do not output RSPAN packets to SPAN ports.
It's always been my intention that ports used as port mirroring
destinations (SPAN) be reserved solely for that purpose. When SPAN and
RSPAN are both configured, however, RSPAN mirror packets could get directed
to SPAN ports, which was unintentional.
This commit also updates the documentation to make it clear (if that is
even necessary) that this behavior is intentional.
Found by inspection.
