Show BFD sessions updated counters by asking the data plane for this
information and show data plane statistics.

Add hooks in the correct places so the BFD daemon uses the data plane
instead of the software packet sending implementation to monitor the
session.
This code also adds some handlers to support fallback to FRR BFD session
handling, however since this complicates the code it won't work at the
moment (the BFD sockets are disabled by default when using data plane).

Distributed BFD is a term used for BFD implementations that do not run
on the routing engine, instead it is run on a data plane (software or
hardware based).
The current code implements the basic communication between FRR BFD
daemon with an external BFD data plane and defines the protocol format
in the file `bfddp_packet.h`.
To enable/use data plane you need to start BFD daemon with the command
line `--dplaneaddr <type>:<address>`, then a socket will be opened to
listen for incoming data plane connections.
