If a Check Point appliance reported a VPN tunnel link priority other than Primary, Backup or On-demand, service discovery failed with KeyError: '4294967295' and the Check_MK service went to WARN.

This was observed on tunnels spanning multiple interfaces: they report a link priority of 4294967295 instead of one of the three documented values.

Such tunnels are now inventorized with their raw link priority shown as Unknown (<value>), and discovery completes as before.
