openvswitch: Factor out allocation and verification of actions.
As the size of the flow key grows, it can put some pressure on the stack. This is particularly true in ovs_flow_cmd_set(), which needs several copies of the key on the stack. One of those uses is logically separate, so this factors it out to reduce stack pressure and improve readibility.
