This commit removes the EAF_TYPE_* namespace completely and also for
route attributes, filter-based types T_* are used. This simplifies
fetching and setting route attributes from filters.
Also, there is now union bval which serves as an universal value holder
instead of private unions held separately by eattr and filter code.
Add operators .min and .max to find minumum or maximum element in sets
of types: clist, eclist, lclist. Example usage:
bgp_community.min
bgp_ext_community.max
filter(bgp_large_community, [(as1, as2, *)]).min

The prefix trie now supports longest-prefix-match query by function
trie_match_longest_ipX() and it can be extended to iteration over all
covering prefixes for a given prefix (from longest to shortest) using
TRIE_WALK_TO_ROOT_IPx() macro.
Trie walking allows enumeration of prefixes in a trie in the usual
lexicographic order. Optionally, trie enumeration can be restricted
to a chosen subnet (and its descendants).
Use 16-way (4bit) branching in prefix trie instead of basic binary
branching. The change makes IPv4 prefix sets almost 3x faster, but
with more memory consumption and much more complicated algorithm.
Together with a previous filter change, it makes IPv4 prefix sets
about ~4.3x faster and slightly smaller (on my test data).
Add support to set or read outgoing MPLS labels using filters. Currently
this supports the addition of one label per route for the first next hop.
Minor changes by committer.
Add 'weight' route attribute that allows to get and set ECMP weight of
nexthops. Similar to 'gw' attribute, it is limited to the first nexthop,
but it is useful for handling BGP multipath, where an ECMP route is
merged from multiple regular routes.
