4c553c5a5b Filter refactoring: dropped the recursion from the interpreter
This is a major change of how the filters are interpreted. If everything
works how it should, it should not affect you unless you are hacking the
filters themselves.

Anyway, this change should make a huge improvement in the filter performance
as previous benchmarks showed that our major problem lies in the
recursion itself.

There are also some changes in nest and protocols, related mostly to
spreading const declarations throughout the whole BIRD and also to
refactored dynamic attribute definitions. The need of these came up
during the whole work and it is too difficult to split out these
not-so-related changes.

82b742533b Perf: Protocol to measure BIRD performance internally
This protocol is highly experimental and nobody should use it in
production. Anyway it may help you getting some insight into what eats
so much time in filter processing.

1cab2b4a7c BGP: Extend 'next hop keep' and 'next hop self' options
Extend 'next hop keep' and 'next hop self' options to have boolean values
(enabled / disabled) and also values 'ibgp'/ 'ebgp' to restrict it to
routes received from IBGP / EBGP. This allows to have it enabled by
default in some cases, matches features of other implementations, and
allows to handle some strange cases like EBGP border router with 'next
hop self' also doing IBGP route reflecting.

Change default of 'next hop keep' to enabled for route servers, and
'ibgp' for route reflectors.

Update documentation for these options.

265419a369 Custom route attributes
For local route marking purposes, local custom route attributes may be
defined. These attributes are seamlessly stripped after export filter to
every real protocol like Kernel, BGP or OSPF, they however pass through
pipes. We currently allow at most 256 custom attributes.

This should be much faster than currently used bgp communities
for marking routes.

3fda08e405 Unix: Change debugging options
The old behavior was that enabling debugging did many nontrivial changes
in BIRD behavior. The patch changes it that these changes are generally
independent. Compiling with --enable-debug now just enables compile-time
debug macros, but do not automatically activate debug mode (-d) nor local
mode (-l). Debug mode with output to file (-D) do not force foreground
mode (-f), therefore there is no need for backgroud option (-b), which is
removed. Also fixes a bug when the default log target in -D mode was
stderr instead of given debug file.

feae132e0f Do not initialize route metrics in import_control hook
During route export, the receiving protocol often initialized route
metrics to default value in its import_control hook before export filter
was executed. This is inconsistent with the expectation that an export
filter would process the same route as one in the routing table and it
breaks setting these metrics before (e.g. for static routes directly in
static protocol).

The patch removes the initialization of route metrics in import_control
hook, the default values are already handled in rt_notify hook called
after export filters.

The patch also changed the behavior of OSPF to keep metrics when a route
is reannounced between OSPF instances (to be consistent with other
protocols) and the behavior when both ospf_metric1 and ospf_metric2
are specified (to have more expected behavior).

70fab17837 Babel: Add option to randomize router ID
When a Babel node restarts, it loses its sequence number, which can cause
its routes to be rejected by peers until the state is cleared out by other
nodes in the network (which can take on the order of minutes).

There are two ways to fix this: Having stable storage to keep the sequence
number across restarts, or picking a different router ID each time.

This implements the latter, by introducing a new option that will cause
BIRD to randomize a high 32 bits of router ID every time it starts up.
This avoids the problem at the cost of not having stable router IDs in
the network.

Thanks to Toke Hoiland-Jorgensen for the patch.
