When dplane_fpm_nl is used the "Please add this protocol(n) to proper
rt_netlink.c handling" debug message is emitted for any route of type
kernel or connected.
This severely reduces performance of dplane_fpm_nl when large numbers
of these routes are present in the RIB.
The messages are not observed when using the original fpm module since
this uses a custom function, netlink_proto_from_route_type().
zebra2proto() now returns RTPROT_KERNEL for ZEBRA_ROUTE_CONNECT and
ZEBRA_ROUTE_KERNEL. This should only impact dplane_fpm_nl's use of
the common netlink routines since these routes generally ignored via
checking of RSYSTEM_ROUTE().

When a local ES flaps there are two modes in which the local
MACs are failed over -
1. Fast failover - A backup NHG (ES-peer group) is programmed in the
dataplane per-access port. When a local ES flaps the MAC entries
are left unaltered i.e. pointing to the down access port. And the
dataplane redirects traffic destined to the oper-down access port
via the backup NHG.
2. Slow failover - This mode needs to be turned on to allow dataplanes
not capable of re-directing traffic. In this mode local MAC entries
on a down local ES are re-programmed to point to the ES-peers'
NHG. And vice-versa i.e. when the ES comes up the MAC entries
are re-programmed with the access port as dest.
Fast failover is on by default. Slow failover can be enabled via the
following config -

Imagine a situation where a interface is bouncing up/down.
The interface comes up and daemons like pbr will get a nht
tracking callback for a connected interface up and will install
the routes down to zebra. At this same time the interface can
go down. But since zebra is busy handling route changes ( from pbr )
it has not read the netlink message and can get into a situation
where the route resolves properly and then we attempt to install
it into the kernel( which is rejected ). If the interface
bounces back up fast at this point, the down then up netlink
message will be read and create two route entries off the connected
route node. Zebra will then enqueue both route entries for future processing.
After this processing happens the down/up is collapsed into an up
and nexthop tracking sees no changes and does not inform any upper
level protocol( in this case pbr ) that nexthop tracking has changed.
So pbr still believes the nexthops are good but the routes are not
installed since pbr has taken no action.
Fix this by immediately running rnh when we signal a connected
route entry is scheduled for removal. This should cause
upper level protocols to get a rnh notification for the small
amount of time that the connected route was bouncing around like
a madman.

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.

MAC-IP routes are used for syncing local entries across redundant
switches in an EVPN-MH setup. A path from a peer that has a local
ES as destination is tagged as a SYNC path. The SYNC path results in the
addition of local MAC and/or local neigh entry in zebra and in the
dataplane.
Implementation overview
=======================
1. Three new flags "local-inactive", "peer-active" and "peer-proxy"
are maintained per-local-MAC and per-local-Neigh entry.
2. The "peer-XXX" flags are set and cleared via SYNC path updates
from BGP. Proxy sync paths result in the setting of "peer-proxy" flag
(and non-proxies result in the "peer-active").
3. A neigh entry that has a "peer-XXX" flag set is programmed as
"static" in the dataplane.
4. A MAC entry that has a "peer-XXX" flag set or is referenced by
a sync-neigh entry (that has a "peer-XXX" flags set) is programmed
as "static" in the dataplane.
5. The sync-seq number is used to normalize the MM seq number across
all the redundant switches i.e. the max MM seq number across all
switches is used by each of the switches. This commit also includes
the changes needed for extended MM seq syncing.
6. A MAC/neigh entry has to be local-active or peer-active to sent to
BGP. An entry that is NOT local-active is sent with the proxy flag (so
BGP can "proxy" advertise it).
7. The "peer-active" flag is aged out by zebra by using a hold_timer
(this is instead of being abruptly dropped on SYNC path delete). This
age-out is needed to handle peer-switch restart (procedures are specified
in draft-rbickhart-evpn-ip-mac-proxy-adv). The holdtime needs to be
sufficiently long to allow an external neighmgr daemon or the dataplane
component to independently probe and establish local reachability of a
host. The MAC and neigh hold time values are configurable.
PS: In the future this probing may happen in FRR itself.

Multihoming support requires a new dataplane feature, MAC-ECMP, to
bridge traffic to remote ESs that are attached to more than one
active VTEP.
As a part of this support indirection has also been added via
L2-NHGs. Using a nexthop group allows for fast failover
of MAC entries when an access port attached to a remote-ES goes
down i.e. instead of updating many MAC entries this becomes a
single NHG update to the dataplane.
Note: Some of the code here needs to be reworked to the new
dataplane model.
