ovs-check-dead-ifs: Check for packet sockets for nonexistent network devices.

One side effect of the "force-reload-kmod" command that reloads the
Open vSwitch kernel module is that all the network devices that the
Open vSwitch kernel module implemented get destroyed and then replaced
by new instances with the same names.  Unfortunately, programs that
are listening for packets on the original network devices will not
receive packets that arrive on the new instances.  This causes some
services, such as DHCP, to silently fail.  This program looks for such
problems and, if it finds any, prints information about programs that
are in such a state.  The system administrator should then take some
action to fix the problem, such as restarting these programs.
