Maintenance of a switch or interface does not migrate the flows to other path

Original issue opened by @italovalcy at https://github.com/kytos/maintenance/issues/23.

Hi,

The maintenance in a switch or backbone interface (NNI) should move the dynamic EVCs to other path, however the EVCs remain in the same path as before the MW.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Using a simple Ring topology in Mininet with 3 switches (sw1--sw2--sw3--sw1)
2. Create an EVC between h1 (connected at sw1) and h2 (connected at sw2), using dynamic path

   curl -s -X POST -H 'Content-type: application/json' http://localhost:8181/api/kytos/mef_eline/v2/evc -d '{"uni_z": {"tag": {"value": 300, "tag_type": 1}, "interface_id": "00:00:00:00:00:00:00:02:1"}, "uni_a": {"tag": {"value": 300, "tag_type": 1}, "interface_id": "00:00:00:00:00:00:00:01:1"}, "enabled": true, "name": "Vlan300_Test_evc1", "dynamic_backup_path": true}'

3. Check the path of the EVC created, to make sure it is using the interface that will be under MW:

   curl -s http://localhost:8181/api/kytos/mef_eline/v2/evc | jq -r '.[].current_path' | grep 00:00:00:00:00:00:00:02:2

4. Create a MW to be started in a couple of minutes later

   curl -s -X POST -H 'Content-type: application/json' http://localhost:8181/api/kytos/maintenance -d '{"description": "my MW on switch 2", "start": "2021-03-05T22:19:00+0000", "end": "2021-03-05T22:20:00+0000", "items": ["00:00:00:00:00:00:00:02:2"]}'

5. Wait until the MW begins and check the flows. When the MW begins, Kytos generate a log message:

   Mar  5 22:19:00 10ae9a814839 apscheduler.executors.default:INFO base:123:  Running job "MaintenanceWindow.start_mw (trigger: date[2021-03-05 22:19:00 UTC], next run at: 2021-03-05 22:19:00 UTC)" (scheduled at 2021-03-05 22:19:00+00:00)
   Mar  5 22:19:00 10ae9a814839 apscheduler.executors.default:INFO base:144:  Job "MaintenanceWindow.start_mw (trigger: date[2021-03-05 22:19:00 UTC], next run at: 2021-03-05 22:19:00 UTC)" executed successfully

Expected result: the EVC should be moved from the path sw1--sw2 to sw1--sw3--sw2

Actual behavior: the EVC remains in the path sw1--sw2:

$ curl -s http://localhost:8181/api/kytos/mef_eline/v2/evc | jq -r '.[].current_path' | grep 00:00:00:00:00:00:00:02:2
      "id": "00:00:00:00:00:00:00:02:2",
