What this PR does / why we need it:
Some LoadBalancers (AWS NLB) do not set KEEPALIVE when they open a TCP connection to the Istio Ingress Gateway. For long living connections it can cause silent timeouts when idle timeouts are hit.
Therefore envoy must be configured to send KEEPALIVE to downstream (LB).
See envoyproxy/envoy#3634
