BGP MRAI Configuration Support

EBGP MRAI support for Prisma Access deployments.
BGP routing offers a timer you can use to tailor BGP routing convergence in your network called the Minimum Route Advertisement Interval (MRAI).
MRAI acts to rate-limit updates on a per-destination basis, and the BGP routers wait for at least the configured MRAI time before sending an advertisement for the same prefix. A smaller number gives you faster convergence time but creates more advertisements in your network. A larger number decreases the number of advertisements that can be sent, but can also make routing convergence slower. You decide the number to put in your network for the best balance between faster routing convergence and fewer advertisements.
You can configure an MRAI range of between 1 and 600 seconds, with a default value of 30 seconds.
