Instead of several levels of functions, just have two functions
(one for routes, the other for end-of-rib), this allows to create
messages in a simple linear fashion.
Also reduce three duplicite functions to construct BGP header for
BMP messages to just one.
This commit is quite a substantial rework of the underlying layers in
BMP TX:
- several unnecessary layers of indirection dropped, including most of
the original BMP's buffer machinery
- all messages are now written directly into one protocol's buffer
allocated for the whole time big enough to fit every possible message
- output blocks are allocated by pages and immediately returned when
used, improving the overall memory footprint
- no intermediary allocation is done from the heap altogether
- there is a documented and configurable limit on the TX queue size
We shouldn't convert bytes 2 and 3 of the PDU blindly, there are several
cases where these are used by bytes. Instead, the conversion is done
only where needed.
This fixes misinterpretation bug of ASPA PDU flags on little endian
architectures.
The END_OF_DATA PDU was extended in version 1, so it has different length
in different versions. We should do the PDU length check according to its
version.
There were some nasty problems with deferred protocol state updates and
race conditions on BGP startup, shutdown, and also with referencing the
cached states.
Now it looks fixed.
Adds ability to override time format of show commands for current CLI session
so that it does not depend on configuration and may ease parsing when CLI is
called from tools.

The original algorithm assumed principles not consistent with the RFC
and could have lead to false invalids.
Also added filter tests showing also how the ASPA literals are used in
the static protocol.
RPKI-To-Router (RTR) sessions seem to be similar security-sensitivity as
IBGP sessions. BIRD already offered a choice of either "plain TCP" (meh)
or "SSH" (secure, albeit a bit more hassle to set up than TCP-MD5).
The patch adds TCP-MD5 as another option. TCP-MD5 for RTR is specified
through RFC 6810 section 7.3 and RFC 8210 section 9.3.

Some vendors do not fill the checksum for IPv6 UDP packets.
For interoperability with such implementations one can set
UDP_NO_CHECK6_RX socket option on Linux.
Thanks to Ville O for the suggestion.

This reverts commit d01a7c2bda.
It seems that the performance penalty in global ea cache is actually
very high so returning back to local attribute caches in every BGP.
