stream-ssl: Flush OpenSSL error queue after calling SSL_shutdown().
The OpenSSL manpage for SSL_get_error() says this:
In addition to ssl and ret, SSL_get_error() inspects the current
thread's OpenSSL error queue. Thus, SSL_get_error() must be used in
the same thread that performed the TLS/SSL I/O operation, and no other
OpenSSL function calls should appear in between. The current thread's
error queue must be empty before the TLS/SSL I/O operation is
attempted, or SSL_get_error() will not work reliably.
We weren't taking this advice literally enough, which meant that this
would happen:
1. Call SSL_shutdown() on one connection.
2. Call SSL_read() on another connection, returning 0 bytes. (This is
normal. It just means that no more data has arrived yet.)
3. Call SSL_get_error() for that second connection to check whether
the 0-byte return value was a real error. (This should return
SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ to indicate that more data is needed.)
4. Actually get some other error indicating that the SSL_shutdown()
call returned an error.
This commit fixes the problem by flushing the OpenSSL error queue after
calling SSL_shutdown().
Without this commit, starting an ovsdb-server with two active SSL remotes,
running two ovsdb-clients listening for connections from the ovsdb-server
remotes, then killing one of the ovsdb-clients (with e.g. Control+C), will
cause ovsdb-server to drop the other ovsdb-client connnection the next time
that SSL_read() is called on it. With this commit, this scenario works
correctly (e.g. ovsdb-server keeps the remaining connection up).

Add header for access to potentially unaligned data.
I had been under the impression that "memcpy" was a valid way to copy
unaligned data into an aligned location for access. But testing on SPARC
has shown that GCC doesn't always honor that intention. It seems that, if
GCC can see that there is a pointer of a type that requires alignment to
a given object, then it will access it directly regardless of whether
memcpy() is used to copy it.
This commit adds a new header with functions to access unaligned data. I
managed to come up with two techniques, one GCC-specific, one generic, that
do avoid the misaligned access in my test case. The GCC-specific technique
is the same one used by the Linux kernel (although no code has been
literally copied). The other one seemed obvious but possibly slow
depending on the compiler's ability to optimize.

datapath: Enable offloading on internal devices.
Enables checksum offloading, scatter/gather, and TSO on internal
devices. While these optimizations were not previously enabled on
internal ports we already could receive these types of packets from
Xen guests. This has the obvious performance benefits when these
packets can be passed directly to hardware.
There is also a more subtle benefit for GRE on Xen. GRE packets
pass through OVS twice - once before encapsulation and once after
encapsulation, moving through an internal device in the process.
If it is a SG packet (as is common on Xen), a copy was necessary
to linearize for the internal device. However, Xen uses the
memory allocator to track packets so when the original packet is
freed after the copy netback notifies the guest that the packet
has been sent, despite the fact that it is actually sitting in the
transmit queue. The guest then sends packets as fast as the CPU
can handle, overflowing the transmit queue. By enabling SG on
the internal device, we avoid the copy and keep the accounting
correct.
In certain circumstances this patch can decrease performance for
TCP. TCP has its own mechanism for tracking in-flight packets
and therefore does not benefit from the corrected socket accounting.
However, certain NICs do not like SG when it is not being used for
TSO (these packets can no longer be handled by TSO after GRE
encapsulation). These NICs presumably enable SG even though they
can't handle it well because TSO requires SG.

Fix issue with "strict" deletion of flows
OpenFlow provides the ability to delete flows that match a "strict"
description. This means that wildcards are not active, and thus will
only match a single flow that exactly matches the description. The code
that checks for a match is pretty dumb and still compares the values of
fields that are wildcarded. A recent change added a "tun_id" matching
field, but did not zero out the field when it was supposed to be
ignored, which broke the matching used by strict deletions. This sets
the field regardless of whether the field is wildcarded or not.
