Few core changes in preparation of P4Runtime subsystem refactoring

Refactoring aims at providing a more robust connection procedure of
P4Runtime-based devices.

Refactoring requires devices to be registered to the core with
available=false (i.e. offline), and marked online only when the P4
pipeline has been deployed to the device. Also, it leaves the duty of
handling pipeconf-specific drivers to the driver subsystem, instead of
having the GeneralDeviceProvider take care of it, which resulted to be
brittle.

Changes include:
- Choose not to mark device online when re-asserting mastership role by
declaring special device annotation.
- Lookup drivers in device projectable model unsing driver service
device-based method, which is consistent with the way other subsystems
look for device drivers.
- In DriverManager, when looking for device drivers, consider the case
of pipeconf-programmable devices, in which case a special "merged"
driver needs to instantiated at runtime.
- In PacketManager, push flow objectives only if device is available
(i.e. after pipeline has been deployed).
