Add a new ad_select policy 'port_priority' that uses the per-port
actor priority values (set via ad_actor_port_prio) to determine
aggregator selection.

This allows administrators to influence which ports are preferred
for aggregation by assigning different priority values, providing
more flexible load balancing control in LACP configurations.
