[j-nsp] MX5-T VPLS fowarding problem

[Per Granath]

If you configure "vlan-id none" under the routing-instance, then all vlan tags will be remove before transport over MPLS, and automatically the correct tag will be pushed on egress towards CE.

Effectively, the VPLS becomes a single broadcast domain also when there are different VLAN ID on different sites.
