For the sake of Segment Routing (SR) and Traffic Engineering (TE)
Policies there's a need for additional infrastructure within zebra.
The infrastructure in this PR is supposed to manage such policies
in terms of installing binding SIDs and LSPs. Also it is capable of
managing MPLS labels using the label manager, keeping track of
nexthops (for resolving labels) and notifying interested parties about
changes of a policy/LSP state. Further it enables a route map mechanism
for BGP and SR-TE colors such that learned BGP routes can be mapped
onto SR-TE Policies.
This PR does not introduce any usable features by now, it is just
infrastructure for other upcoming PRs which will introduce 'pathd',
a new SR-TE daemon.

1. Local ethernet segments are configured in zebra by attaching a
local-es-id and sys-mac to a access interface -
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
!
interface hostbond1
evpn mh es-id 1
evpn mh es-sys-mac 00:00:00:00:01:11
!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
This info is then sent to BGP and used for the generation of EAD-per-ES
routes.
2. Access VLANs associated with an (ES) access port are translated into
ES-EVI objects and sent to BGP. This is used by BGP for the
generation of EAD-EVI routes.
3. Remote ESs are imported by BGP and sent to zebra. A list of VTEPs
is maintained per-remote ES in zebra. This list is used for the creation
of the L2-NHG that is used for forwarding traffic.
4. MAC entries with a non-zero ESI destination use the L2-NHG associated
with the ESI for forwarding traffic over the VxLAN overlay.
Please see zebra_evpn_mh.h for the datastruct organization details.

Distinguish zapi sessions, for daemons who use more than one,
by adding a session id. The tuple of proto + instance is not
adequate to support clients who use multiple zapi sessions.
Include the id in the client show output if it's present. Add

Zebra is currently sending messages on interface add/delete/update,
VRF add/delete, and interface address change - regardless of whether
its clients had requested them. This is problematic for lde and isis,
which only listens to label chunk messages, and only when it is
waiting for one (synchronous client). The effect is the that messages
accumulate on the lde synchronous message queue.
With this change:
- Zebra does not send unsolicited messages to synchronous clients.
- Synchronous clients send a ZEBRA_HELLO to zebra.
The ZEBRA_HELLO contains a new boolean field: sychronous.
- LDP and PIM have been updated to send a ZEBRA_HELLO for their
synchronous clients.

Commit
68a02e06e5 broke nexthop encoding
for nexthop tracking.
This code combined the different types of nexthop encoding
being done in the zapi protocol. What was missed that
resolved nexthops of type NEXTHOP_TYPE_IPV4|6 have an ifindex
value that was not being reported. This commit ensures
that we always send this data( even if it is 0).
The following test commit will ensure that this stays working
as is expected by an upper level protocol.

Add error handling for top level failures (not able to
execute command, unable to find vrf for command, etc.)
With this error handling we add a new zapi message type
of ZEBRA_ERROR used when we are unable to properly handle
a zapi command and pass it down into the lower level code.
In the event of this, we reply with a message of type
enum zebra_error_types containing the error type.
The sent packet will look like so:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

when ever a FRR Client wants to send any data to another node
using MLAG Channel, uses below mechanisam.
1. sends a MLAG Registration to zebra with interested messages that
it is intended to receive from peer.
2. In response to this request, Zebra opens communication channel with
MLAG. and also in Rx. diretion zebra forwards only those messages which
client shown interest during registration
3. when client is no-longer interested in communicating with MLAG, client
posts De-register to Zebra
4. if this is the last client which is interested for MLAG Communication,
zebra closes the channel.
why PIM Needs MLAG Communication
================================
1. In general on LAN Networks elecetd DR will send the Join towards
Multicast RP in case of a LHR and Register in case of FHR.
2. But in case DR Goes down, traffic will be re-converged only after
the New DR is elected, but this can take time based on Hold Timer to
detect the DR down.
3. this can be optimised by using MLAG Mecganisam.
4. and also Traffic can be forwarded more efficiently by knowing the cost
towards RP using MLAG

With commit: a9ff90c41b
the vrf_id_t was changed from a uint16_t to a uint32_t
Zebra tracked the last command sent to it's peer via peeking
into the data it was sending to each client ( since we had
lost the idea of what the command was when it was time to track
the data ).
Add a define to track this and add a bit of verbiage
to the code to allow us to notice when we screw with
the header again so that this is just fixed correctly
when it happens again.
