BGP: Ensure EOR is always sent immediately after all prefixes have been adv.

Its possible that EOR send is delayed until the next KeepAlive timer fires.
This can happen when the send update iteration precisely matches the last
update packet sent. After this since there are no more updates to be sent,
no write thread is setup, but there's still the EOR to be sent. Therefore,
EOR is not sent right away causing some neighbors to not exit RO mode and
delaying convergence overall. This patch ensures that EOR is sent at the end
of all updates on startup.
