Introduce ofpacts, an abstraction of OpenFlow actions.
OpenFlow actions have always been somewhat awkward to handle.
Moreover, over time we've started creating actions that require more
complicated parsing. When we maintain those actions internally in
their wire format, we end up parsing them multiple times, whenever
we have to look at the set of actions.
When we add support for OpenFlow 1.1 or later protocols, the situation
will get worse, because these newer protocols support many of the same
actions but with different representations. It becomes unrealistic to
handle each protocol in its wire format.
This commit adopts a new strategy, by converting OpenFlow actions into
an internal form from the wire format when they are read, and converting
them back to the wire format when flows are dumped. I believe that this
will be more maintainable over time.

ofproto-dpif-governor: Improve performance when most flows get set up.
The "flow setup governor" was introduced to avoid the cost of setting up
short flows when there are many of them. It works very well for short
flows, in fact. However, when the bulk of flows are short, but still long
enough to be set up by the governor, we end up with the worst of both
worlds: OVS processes the first 5 packets of every flow "by hand" and then
it still has to set up a flow.
This commit refines the flow setup governor so that, when most of the flows
that go through it actually get set up, it in turn starts setting up most
flows at the first packet. When it does this, it continues to sample a
small fraction of the flows in the governor's usual manner, so that if the
behavior changes it can react to it.
This increases netperf TCP_CRR transactions per second by about 25% in my
test setup, without affecting "ovs-benchmark rate" performance.
(I found that to get relatively stable performance for TCP_CRR, regardless
of whether Open vSwitch or any kind of bridging was involved, I had to pin
the netperf processes on each side of the link to a single core. I found
that my NIC's interrupts were already pinned. Thanks to Luca Giraudo

The changes to ovs-vsctl(8) add a couple of references to

ofproto-dpif-governor: Wake up only when there is genuinely work to do.
Until now, governor_wait() has awakened the poll loop whenever the
generation timer expires, to allow it to shrink the governor to the next
smaller size in governor_run(). However, if the governor is already the
smallest possible size, then governor_run() will not have anything to do
and will not restart the timer, which means that governor_wait() will again
immediately wake up the poll loop, and we end up using 100% CPU.
This is kind of hard to trigger because normally the client will destroy
a governor in such a case. However, if there are too many subfacets, the
client will keep even a minimum-size governor, triggering the bug.
