[c-nsp] BGP soft reconfiguration inbound

[Masood Ahmad Shah]

I have had experienced that sometime BGP session goes down/up if you add or
remove "soft-reconfiguration inbound". I will try to check this tonight if I
get time.

This shouldn't reset your BGP session, so you should be able to do it on
a live network. I've only tested it on our CE-boxes (C3560) so I don't
know for sure though.
