Add a new raw packet flow that allows specifying generic flow input.

Add the ability to provide masks for fields in flow to allow range of
values.

Add a new behavior switch.

Add the ability to provide behavior arguments to allow rewriting matched
fields with new values. Ex: allows to provide new ip and port addresses
to rewrite the fields of packets matching a filter rule before NAT'ing.

Thomas, any comments as ethdev maintainer?

Jingjing, you have been doing some work on flow director for other NICs. Can
you perhaps review this patch as well.
