Label Manager allows to share MPLS label space among different
daemons. Each daemon can request a chunk of consecutive labels and
release it if it doesn't need them anymore. Label Manager stores the
daemon protocol and instance to identify the owner client. It uses them
to perform garbage collection, releasing all label chunks from a client
when it gets disconnected or reconnected.
Additionally, every client can request that the chunk is never garbage
collected. In that case client has the responsibility to release
non-used labels.
Zebra can host the label manager itself (if no -l param is provided) or
connect to an external one using zserv/zclient (providing its address
with -l param).
Client code is in lib/zclient.c, but currently only LDP is using it.
TODO: Allow for custom ranges requests, i.e., specify the start label
besides the chunk.
TODO: Release labels from LDP.

The if_update function should be owned
by lib/if.h. Move the function out of the
way so we can rename lib/if.h if_update_vrf -> if_update

The protocols enum serves no purpose other than adding potential for
bugs and making it complicated to add a new protocol... nuke.

Centralise read_config/daemonize/dryrun/pidfile/vty_serv into libfrr.
This also makes multi-instance pid/config handling available as part of
the library. It's only wired up in ospfd, but the code is in lib/.

Start centralising startup & option parsing into the library.
FRR_DAEMON_INFO is a bit weird, but it will become useful later (e.g.
for killing the ZLOG_* enum, and having the daemon name available)

This patch introduces several new configuration commands to ldpd. These
commands should allow the operator to define advanced filtering policies
for things like label advertisement, label allocation, etc.

By default all ldpd interprocess communication is asynchronous
(non-blocking socketpairs). Under some circumstances, however, we'll
need synchronous IPC as well. Examples:
* the lde child process requesting labels to zebra (through the parent
process);
* apply an access-list on a given IP prefix (ACLs are only available in
the parent process).
This patch only adds the necessary infrastructure to allow the child
processes to make synchronous requests to the parent process. Later
patches will make use of this new infrastructure.

Using red-black trees instead of linked lists brings the following
benefits:
1 - Elements are naturally ordered (no need to reorder anything before
outputting data to the user);
2 - Faster lookups/deletes: O(log n) time complexity against O(n).
The insert operation with red-black trees is more expensive though,
but that's not a big issue since lookups are much more frequent.

ldpd was keeping track of the vty session's position in config editing
with 3 global static variables. This worked because only one vty could
be in configuration-editing mode before.
Replace with vty->qobj_index infrastructure and enable
vty_config_lockless.

Place the appropriate QOBJ_* calls. A bit more complicated for ldpd due
to the dup-merge config scheme.

Extend configuration duplication-merge mechanism to allow keeping track
of a single specific object. A "void **" pointer is passed in; the
"void *" pointer it points to is updated with the new address of the
object it points to.
