Send LACP PDU right after the Actor state has been changed
According to the LACP standard "LACP daemon must send LACP PDU
packets with updates when the Actor's state changes or when it is
apparent from the Partner's LACPDUs that the Partner does not know
the Actor's current state."
The current libteam implementation sends periodic updates only, so
in LACP slow rate mode the update will be transmitted within 30 seconds
which doesn't follow the LACP standard.
To fix the issue:
1. Revert the patch:
b2de61b39696 ("Fix sending duplicate LACP frames at the start of establishing a logical channel.")
2. Recalculate LACP actor state before the comparison what the LACP
Partner thinks about the LACP Actor state.
