As part of the conversion to a `struct peer_connection` it will
be desirable to have 2 pointers one for when we open a connection
and one for when we receive a connection. Start this actual
conversion over to this in `struct peer`. If this sounds confusing
take a look at the bgp state machine for connections and how
it resolves the processing of this router opening -vs- this
router receiving an open. At some point in time the state
machine decides that we are keeping one of the two connections.
Future commits will allow us to untangle the peer/doppelganger
duality with this abstraction.

P# Please enter the commit message for your changes. Lines starting
BGP tracks connections based upon the peer. But the problem
with this is that the doppelganger structure for it is being
created. This has introduced a bunch of fragileness in that
the peer exists independently of the connections to it.
The whole point of the doppelganger structure was to allow
BGP to both accept and initiate tcp connections and then
when we get one to a `good` state we collapse into the
appropriate one. The problem with this is that having
2 peer structures for this creates a situation where
we have to make sure we are configing the `right` one
and also make sure that we collapse the two independent
peer structures into 1 acting peer. This makes no sense
let's abstract out the peer into having 2 connection
one for incoming connections and one for outgoing connections
then we can easily collapse down without having to do crazy
stuff. In addition people adding new features don't need
to have to go touch a million places in the code.
This is the start of this abstraction. In this commit
we'll just pull out the fd and input/output buffers
into a connection data structure. Future commits
will abstract further.

A new keyword permits changing the BGP as-notation output:
- [no] router bgp <> [vrf BLABLA] [as-notation [<dot|plain|dot+>]]
At the BGP instance creation, the output will inherit the way the
BGP instance is declared. For instance, the 'router bgp 1.1'
command will configure the output in the dot format. However, if
the client wants to choose an alternate output, he will have to
add the extra command: 'router bgp 1.1 as-notation dot+'.
Also, if the user wants to have plain format, even if the BGP
instance is declared in dot format, the keyword can also be used
for that.
The as-notation output is only taken into account at the BGP
instance creation. In the case where VPN instances are used,
a separate instance may be dynamically created. In that case,
the real as-notation format will be taken into acccount at the
first configuration.
Linking the as-notation format with the BGP instance makes sense,
as the operators want to keep consistency of what they configure.
One technical reason why to link the as-notation output with the
BGP instance creation is that the as-path segment lists stored
in the BGP updates use a string representation to handle aspath
operations (by using regexp for instance). Changing on the fly
the output needs to regenerate this string representation to the
correct format. Linking the configuration to the BGP instance
creation avoids refreshing the BGP updates. A similar mechanism
is put in place in junos too.

This is a preliminary work to handle various ways to configure
a BGP Autonomous System. When creating a BGP instance, the
user may want to define the AS number as a dotted value,
instead of using an integer value.
To handle both cases, an as_pretty char attribute will store
the as number as it has been given to the vtysh command:
router bgp <as number>
Whenever the as integer of the BGP instance was dumped,
the as_pretty original format is used.
The json output reuses the integer value to keep backward
compatibility with old displays.

New compilers are noticing that the tests are compiling with
a pointer for the bgpd_privs variable while the bgp library
that is being linked against is not a pointer. Since
these tests had the declaration just to make the compiler
happy, let's actually align the variable type to make the
compiler even happier.

Currently, it is possible to rename the default VRF either by passing
`-o` option to zebra or by creating a file in `/var/run/netns` and
binding it to `/proc/self/ns/net`.
In both cases, only zebra knows about the rename and other daemons learn
about it only after they connect to zebra. This is a problem, because
daemons may read their config before they connect to zebra. To handle
this rename after the config is read, we have some special code in every
single daemon, which is not very bad but not desirable in my opinion.
But things are getting worse when we need to handle this in northbound
layer as we have to manually rewrite the config nodes. This approach is
already hacky, but still works as every daemon handles its own NB
structures. But it is completely incompatible with the central
management daemon architecture we are aiming for, as mgmtd doesn't even
have a connection with zebra to learn from it. And it shouldn't have it,
because operational state changes should never affect configuration.
To solve the problem and simplify the code, I propose to expand the `-o`
option to all daemons. By using the startup option, we let daemons know
about the rename before they read their configs so we don't need any
special code to deal with it. There's an easy way to pass the option to
all daemons by using `frr_global_options` variable.
Unfortunately, the second way of renaming by creating a file in
`/var/run/netns` is incompatible with the new mgmtd architecture.
Theoretically, we could force daemons to read their configs only after
they connect to zebra, but it means adding even more code to handle a
very specific use-case. And anyway this won't work for mgmtd as it
doesn't have a connection with zebra. So I had to remove this option.

This moves all the DFLT_BGP_* stuff over to the new defaults mechanism.
bgp_timers_nondefault() added to get better file-scoping.
v2: moved everything into bgp_vty.c so that the core BGP code is
independent of the CLI-specific defaults. This should make the future
northbound conversion easier.

Add -s X or --socket_size X to the bgp cli to allow
the end user to specify the outgoing bgp tcp kernel
socket buffer size.
It is recommended that this option is only used on
large scale operations.

The Vrf aliases can be known with a specific hook. That hook will then,
from zebra propagate the information to the relevant zapi clients.
The registration hook function is the same for all daemons.

Fuzzing with tools like afl requires the ability to quickly/easily
call a function to test it's input. In the case of bgp we
need the ability to test bgp's packet handler quickly. This
added program bgpd/test_packet takes a file name as input
that it treats as normal bgp communication between itself
and a peer.
