This commmit introduces Staticd as a backend client for the MGMTd
framework. All the static commands will be diverted to the MGMT
daemon and will use the transactional model to make changes to the
internal state. Similar mechanism can be used by other daemons to use
the MGMT framework in the future.
This commit includes the following functionalities in the changeset:
1. Diverts all the staticd (config only) commands to MGMTd.
2. Enrolls staticd as a backend client to use the MGMT framework.
3. Modify the staticd NB config handlers so that they can be compiled
into a library and loaded in the MGMTd process context.

This commit introduces the MGMT Backend Interface which can be used
by back-end management client daemons like BGPd, Staticd, Zebra to
connect with new FRR Management daemon (MGMTd) and utilize the new
FRR Management Framework to let any Frontend clients to retrieve any
operational data or manipulate any configuration data owned by the
individual Backend daemon component.
This commit includes the following functionalities in the changeset:
1. Add new Backend server for Backend daemons connect to.
2. Add a C-based Backend client library which can be used by daemons
to communicate with MGMTd via the Backend interface.
3. Maintain a backend adapter for each connection from an appropriate
Backend client to facilitate client requests and track one or more
transactions initiated from Frontend client sessions that involves
the backend client component.
4. Add the following commands to inspect various Backend client
related information
a. show mgmt backend-adapter all
b. show mgmt backend-yang-xpath-registry
c. show mgmt yang-xpath-subscription
