Quoting the ACL label section in the ovn.nb.5 man page:

  Associates an identifier with the ACL.
  The same value will be written to corresponding connection
  tracker entry. The value should be a valid 32-bit unsigned integer.
  This value can help in debugging from connection tracker side.
  For example, through this "label" we can backtrack to the ACL rule
  which is causing a "leaked" connection. Connection tracker entries are
  created only for allowed connections so the label is valid only
  for allow and allow-related actions.

The above states that the ACL label must always be stored in the
connection tracker entry label for allow-related ACLs (regardless of the
direction of the ACL).  However, since 74d82e296f80 ("northd: Support
the option to apply from-lport ACLs after load balancer."), the
connection is not re-committed in the ls_in_stateful stage (because it
already was committed as part of the load balancer DNAT).

Moreover, by not re-committing the connection after LB we also risk not
re-setting any potential ct_mark.blocked value the connection might
have.

This patch addresses the issue by always committing packets matched by
allow-related (or stateful in general) ACLs even if they were also
committed as part of the load balancing stage.

There's potentially a slight overhead when doing this (an additional
commit call into conntrack but _no_ recirculation).  This is however
acceptable as it is required for a correct packet processing pipeline
implementation.  Even without this fix, packets creating new
connections that hit "--apply-after-lb" ACLs trigger a re-commit (for
storing the label and ct_mark.blocked).

A new test is added to ensure we don't break this functionality in the
future.
