Use a 10s poll interval to see if locators have changed instead of NETLINK

NETLINK is only available on Linux. The poll interval may be less
reactive and efficient, but it is available everywhere. Moreover, this
fix the case where a new locator was not deteced if an interface IP
was added before the interface was UP and RUNNING.
