Local fix

Problem summary

• TPC-R does not show hyperswap in a degraded state, it only
  shows
  enabled or disabled. The session pairs should show errors on
  the pairs and propogate up to the session status. This was
  cuased because TPC-R could not see that the config exists
  through IOS.
  

Problem conclusion

• The fix is a collaboration between TPC-R and IOS. TPC-R set up a
  new HSRP structure and added new messages to handle this use
  case. IOS component of zOS updated code in APAR OA38871
  Now TPC-R will now show degraded state in a HyperSwap session if
  only part of the session is HyperSwap capable.
