If the user didn't specify any control action, don't pop the command line
arguments: otherwise, parsing of the next argument (tipically the 'index'
keyword) results in an error, causing the following 'tc-testing' failures:
Test a6d6: Add skbedit action with index
Test 38f3: Delete skbedit action
Test a568: Add action with ife type
Test b983: Add action without ife type
Test 7d50: Add skbmod action to set destination mac
Test 9b29: Add skbmod action to set source mac
Test e93a: Delete an skbmod action
Also, add missing parse for 'ok' control action to m_police, to fix the
following 'tc-testing' failure:
Test 8dd5: Add police action with control ok
tested with:
# ./tdc.py
test results:
all tests ok using kernel 4.16-rc2, except 9aa8 "Get a single skbmod
action from a list" (which is failing also before this commit)

Not all callers want parse_action_control*() to advance the
arguments. For instance act_parse_police() does the argument
advancing itself.

Each tc action is terminated by a control action. Each action parses and
prints then intividually. Introduce set of helpers and allow to share
this code.

The sample tc action allows sampling packets matching a classifier. It
peeks randomly packets, and samples them using the psample netlink
channel. The user can specify the psample group, which the packet will be
sampled to, the sampling rate and the packet truncation (to save
kernel-user traffic).
The sampled packets contain informative metadata, for example, the input
interface and the original packet length.
The action syntax:
tc filter add [...] \
action sample rate <RATE> group <GROUP> [trunc <SIZE>]
[...]
Where:
RATE := The sampling rate which is the ratio of packets observed at the
data source to the samples generated
GROUP := the psample module sampling group
SIZE := optional truncation size
An example for a common usecase of the sample tc action: to sample ingress
traffic from interface eth1, one may use the commands:
tc qdisc add dev eth1 handle ffff: ingress
tc filter add dev eth1 parent ffff: \
matchall action sample rate 12 group 4
Where the first command adds an ingress qdisc and the second starts
sampling randomly with an average of one sampled packet per 12 packets
on dev eth1 to psample group 4.
