Three blockers fixed for VPC public subnet E2E on single-node:
1. OVN SB stale data: reset-dev-env.sh now deletes both NB+SB DB files
instead of individual NB cleanup. Eliminates ovn-controller commit
failure loop from stale chassis/port binding entries.
2. Chassis name mismatch: reset-dev-env.sh passes --chassis-id=chassis-node1
to setup-ovn.sh, aligning OVS system-id with vpcd's chassis-{nodeName}.
3. Macvlan unicast filtering: switched to centralized NAT (no external_mac
on DNAT rules), set nat-addresses=router on localnet ports, and vpcd
aligns macvlan MAC with OVN gateway router MAC on startup. Macvlan only
delivers unicast matching its own MAC — this ensures inbound traffic
from the LAN reaches OVS/OVN.
Also fixed: DNS for VMs. admin init auto-detects host DNS servers via
resolvectl, stores them in spinifex.toml dns_servers field, and vpcd
propagates them to OVN DHCP options. Fallback: 8.8.8.8 + 1.1.1.1.
Validated E2E: inbound ping, SSH, outbound ping, DNS, curl, apt update.
The single-nic IP migration path was fragile and caused connectivity
issues during setup. macvlan is now the only bridge strategy — always
creates spx-ext-{nic} on the WAN NIC. Removed --single-nic flag,
SingleNIC config/detection fields, and updated all docs.
