Currently, OVN-IC doesn't support a way to tell the end-user when their changes
to the IC-NB database have propagated successfully to the IC-SB Database.

This patch series adds basic support for the sequence number status protocol
that is implemented on the native OVN, with this patch series the end user
now can wait for their changes in the IC-NB DB to take effect by executing the
'sync' command after applying any changes to the IC-NB DB, for example, if the
end-user has created a transit switch in the IC-NB global DB and want to make
sure that the IC-SB create a DP binding for this ts-switch the user now can use
the 'sync' command as following:
    $ ovn-ic-nbctl ts-add ts1
    $ ovn-ic-nbctl --wait=sb sync

The second command will wait until all the ovn-ic instances see the new changes
and update their own local dbs and the global IC-SB db.

v2 -> v3
