[j-nsp] bfd = busted failure detection :)

Is there a way to see stats on bfd sessions, such as the number of
probes lost? I'm trying to figure out why I can't reliably keep bfd
running between two Juniper's without getting a ton of false positives,
even with very high detection thresholds. Nothing useful in "show bfd
session extensive" (below), and I'm not seeing anything obvious in the
pfe shell for bfd stats (I'm running ppm delegate, wondering if there
are possible issues there).
