PBR - set ip next-hop verify-availability

Normally set ip next-hop will forward packets when the route-map is matched regardless if the next hop is alive or not. Adding the verify-availability keyword, the router will check the next hop availability via CDP before forwarding the packets, and when next-hop is dead, the packets will be routed through the normal routing table.
