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.
