Previously, flows were manipulated by userspace specifying a full,
unmasked flow key. This adds significant burden onto flow
serialization/deserialization, particularly when dumping flows.
This patch adds an alternative way to refer to flows using a
variable-length "unique flow identifier" (UFID). At flow setup time,
userspace may specify a UFID for a flow, which is stored with the flow
and inserted into a separate table for lookup, in addition to the
standard flow table. Flows created using a UFID must be fetched or
deleted using the UFID.
All flow dump operations may now be made more terse with OVS_UFID_F_*
flags. For example, the OVS_UFID_F_OMIT_KEY flag allows responses to
omit the flow key from a datapath operation if the flow has a
corresponding UFID. This significantly reduces the time spent assembling
and transacting netlink messages. With all OVS_UFID_F_OMIT_* flags
enabled, the datapath only returns the UFID and statistics for each flow
during flow dump, increasing ovs-vswitchd revalidator performance by 40%
or more.

Refactor the ovs_nla_fill_match() function into separate netlink
serialization functions ovs_nla_put_{unmasked_key,mask}(). Modify
ovs_nla_put_flow() to handle attribute nesting and expose the 'is_mask'
parameter - all callers need to nest the flow, and callers have better
knowledge about whether it is serializing a mask or not.

This new flag is useful for suppressing error logging while probing
for datapath features using flow commands. For backwards
compatibility reasons the commands are executed normally, but error
logging is suppressed.

OVS vswitch has extended IPFIX exporter to export tunnel headers
to improve network visibility.
To export this information userspace needs to know egress tunnel
for given packet. By extending packet attributes datapath can
export egress tunnel info for given packet. So that userspace
can ask for egress tunnel info in userspace action. This
information is used to build IPFIX data for given flow.

There are two separate API to allocate and copy actions list. Anytime
OVS needs to copy action list, it needs to call both functions.
Following patch moves action allocation to copy function to avoid
code duplication.

Allow datapath to recognize and extract MPLS labels into flow keys
and execute actions which push, pop, and set labels on packets.
Based heavily on work by Leo Alterman, Ravi K, Isaku Yamahata and Joe Stringer.

With mega flow implementation ovs flow can be shared between
multiple CPUs which makes stats updates highly contended
operation. This patch uses per-CPU stats in cases where a flow
is likely to be shared (if there is a wildcard in the 5-tuple
and therefore likely to be spread by RSS). In other situations,
it uses the current strategy, saving memory and allocation time.

Over the time datapath.c and flow.c has became pretty large files.
Following patch restructures functionality of component into three
different components:
flow.c: contains flow extract.
flow_netlink.c: netlink flow api.
flow_table.c: flow table api.
This patch restructures code without changing logic.
