Filter: Add 'weight' route attribute

Browse source 
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.

<tag><label id="rta-weight"><m/int/ weight</tag>
Multipath weight of route next hops. Valid values are 1-256. Reading
returns the weight of the first next hop, setting it sets weights of all
next hops to the specified value. Therefore, this attribute is not much
useful for manipulating individual next hops of an ECMP route, but can
be used in BGP multipath setup to set weights of individual routes that
are merged to one ECMP route during export to the Kernel protocol
(with active <ref id="krt-merge-paths" name="marge paths"> option).
