To easily allow both in- and out-of-tree building of the Python
wrapper for the OVS JSON parser (e.g. w/ pip), move json.h to
include/openvswitch. This also requires moving lib/{hmap,shash}.h.
Both hmap.h and shash.h were #include-ing "util.h" even though the
headers themselves did not use anything from there, but rather from
include/openvswitch/util.h. Fixing that required including util.h
in several C files mostly due to OVS_NOT_REACHED and things like
xmalloc.

Some tunnel protocols, such as Geneve, have a bit in the tunnel
header to indicate that it is an OAM packet. This means that the
packet should be processed as a tunnel control frame and not be
passed onto connected links.
When BFD is used inside of a tunnel it is often used in this control
capacity, so this adds an option to enable marking the outer header
when the output port is a tunnel that supports the OAM concept. It is
also possible to use tunnels as point-to-point links that are simply
carrying BFD as payload, so this is not always turned on.
Conceptually, this may also apply to other types of packets locally
generated by the switch, most obviously CFM. However, BFD seems to
be most commonly used for this type of tunnel monitoring application
so this only adds the option to BFD for the time being to avoid
unnecessarily adding configuration knobs that might never get used.

Define struct eth_addr and use it instead of a uint8_t array for all
ethernet addresses in OVS userspace. The struct is always the right
size, and it can be assigned without an explicit memcpy, which makes
code more readable.
"struct eth_addr" is a good type name for this as many utility
functions are already named accordingly.
struct eth_addr can be accessed as bytes as well as ovs_be16's, which
makes the struct 16-bit aligned. All use seems to be 16-bit aligned,
so some algorithms on the ethernet addresses can be made a bit more
efficient making use of this fact.
As the struct fits into a register (in 64-bit systems) we pass it by
value when possible.
This patch also changes the few uses of Linux specific ETH_ALEN to
OVS's own ETH_ADDR_LEN, and removes the OFP_ETH_ALEN, as it is no
longer needed.
This work stemmed from a desire to make all struct flow members
assignable for unrelated exploration purposes. However, I think this
might be a nice code readability improvement by itself.

Currently dp-packet make use of ofpbuf for managing packet
buffers. That complicates ofpbuf, by making dp-packet
independent of ofpbuf both libraries can be optimized for
their own use case.
This avoids mapping operation between ofpbuf and dp_packet
in datapath upcalls.

Commit 6b59b543 (ovs-thread: Use fair (but nonrecursive)
rwlocks on glibc.) changed the rwlocks to nonrecursive,
writer-biased lock. It also made the following deadlock
possible.
Assume BFD is used on both end of a link. Consider the
following events:
1. Handler at one end received the BFD control packet with
POLL flag set while holding the read lock of 'xlate_rwlock'.
Since a BFD control packet with FINAL flag set should be
sent back immediately, it calls the
ofproto_dpif_monitor_port_send_soon(), in which, it tries
to grab the 'monitor_mutex'.
2. The main thread needs to configure the ofproto-dpif-xlate
module. It tries to grab the write lock of 'xlate_rwlock'
and is blocked by event 1.
3. The monitor thread, after acquired the 'monitor_mutex',
wants to acquire the read lock of 'xlate_rwlock'.
Since the rwlock is now writer-biased, the attempt of acquiring
read lock in event 3 will be blocked by event 2. This will
subsequently cause the block of event 1, since monitor thread
is holding the 'monitor_mutex'. So the deadlock happens.
This commit resolves the above issue by removing the requirement of
acquiring 'monitor_mutex' in ofproto_dpif_monitor_port_send_soon().

Thread names are occasionally very useful for debugging, but from time to
time we've forgotten to set one. This commit adds the new thread's name
as a parameter to the function to start a thread, to make that mistake
impossible. This also simplifies code, since two function calls become
only one.
This makes a few other changes to the thread creation function:
* Since it is no longer a direct wrapper around a pthread function,
rename it to avoid giving that impression.
* Remove 'pthread_attr_t *' param that every caller supplied as NULL.
* Change 'pthread *' parameter into a return value, for convenience.
The system-stats code hadn't set a thread name, so this fixes that issue.
This patch is a prerequisite for making RCU report the name of a thread
that is blocking RCU synchronization, because the easiest way to do that is
for ovsrcu_quiesce_end() to record the current thread's name.
ovsrcu_quiesce_end() is called before the thread function is called, so it
won't get a name set within the thread function itself. Setting the thread
name earlier, as in this patch, avoids the problem.

Commit 307464a11 (ofproto-dpif-monitor: Use heap to order the mport
wakeup time.) makes bfd only send packet at specified periodic instant.
This fails to meet the RFC5880 requirement, which requires bfd send
FINAL immediately after receiving POLL.
This commit fixes the above issue by scheduling bfd to send FINAL
within 100 ms after receiving POLL.

Commit 307464a1 (ofproto-dpif-monitor: Use heap to order the mport
wakeup time.) re-heapifies the heap in monitor_run(). So the
monitor_run() should be protected by the write lock, rather than
the read lock.
This commit fixes the issue.

Currently, every time a monitoring port is added or reconfigured, the
main thread notifies the monitoring thread to wake up immediately using
monitor_seq. When adding a large number of ports at once, this causes
contention as the threads fight over access to the monitor heap---one
thread adding new ports, the other popping and processing the new ports.
This patch removes this mechanism in favour of a simple periodic wakeup
in the monitor thread. When configuring batches of 500 tunnels at once,
up to a total of 5000 tunnels, this reduces configuration time by up to
35%. New port monitor port configuration may not take effect for as long
as ~100ms, although it may be less if the timer has not recently timed
out, or if a monitoring port is due to send a packet.

Before this commit, each time ofproto-dpif-monitor thread wakes up,
all monitored ports will be iterated over. This adds a huge overhead
to the monitor thread. This commit uses a heap to order the wakeup
time of monitored ports. So each time the monitor thread is waken up,
it will only iterate those monitored ports that have timed out.
This commit greatly increases the number of monitored interfaces
openvswitch could support.

This commit moves the ofproto-dpif-monitor module into a
dedicated thread. This helps eliminate the burden of main
thread having to wake up very frequently for periodic
interface monitoring (bfd, cfm). Thusly, this commit greatly
increases the number of bfd/cfm sessions that can be supported
by ovs.
