Done with a combination of regex'ing and banging my head against a wall.

ipmr-lo is an internally added device used for multicast vxlan tunnel
termination. This device is not expected to be managed by the admin
however in the case it is accidentally shut we need to be able handle
it by recovering when it is "no shut" again.

Two devices have special significance to multicast VxLAN tunnels -
1. tunnel origination device -
This device is used as the source device to vxlan-encapsulate BUM traffic.
In the case of the default-vrf this is lo. And in the case of non-default
VRF this is vrf-net-device. This patchset is limited to default-VRF
underlay so all subsequent references of origination-dev are to lo. But it
is possible in the future to extend support to non-default VRFs.
Sample origination mroute on single-VTEP:
(27.0.0.7, 239.1.1.100) Iif: lo Oifs: uplink-1
In the case of MLAG we need to mroute traffic form the MLAG-peer so
we force the IIF to the ISL.
Sample origination mroute on MLAG-VTEP:
(36.0.0.9, 239.1.1.100) Iif: peerlink-3.4094 Oifs: peerlink-3.4094 uplink-1
2. tunnel termination device -
This device is used in the OIL to indicate that packets matching the flow
must be vxlan terminated and overlay packets subsequently forward to the
tenants. A special device has been created for this purpose called ipmr-lo.
This is a simple dummy interface from the kernel perspective which has
special siginficance only to pimd which implicitly enabled pim on the
device and adds it to the termination mroutes.
Sample termination mroute:
(0.0.0.0, 239.1.1.100) Iif: uplink-1 Oifs: uplink-1 ipmr-lo
PS: currently we default the termination device name to "ipmr-lo" but in
the future it is possible to provide a config command to set the
termination device.

These entries will be used over the subsequent commits for
1. vxlan-tunnel-termination handling - setup MDT to rx VxLAN encapsulated
BUM traffic.
2. vxlan-tunnel-origination handling - register local-vtep-ip as a
multicast source.
