The patch contains the necessary modifications to compile and also to run
under MSVC.
Added the files to the build system and also changed dpif_linux to be under
a more generic name dpif_windows.
Added a TODO under the windows part in case we want to implement another
counterpart for epoll functions.

Relocating bond.[ch] to allow bond.c to make ofproto calls.
This is needed for upcoming patches that enable megaflow support
for bond ports.

The commit configures the masks generated from megaflows and pushes
them through the dpif layer.
With this commit and a wildcard supporting OVS kernel module,
ovs-vswitchd's flow setup rate is very close to that of the Linux
bridge.

In addition to the changes to ofproto, this commit changes all of the
instances of "struct flow" in the tree so that the "in_port" member is an
OpenFlow port number. Previously, this member was an OpenFlow port number
in some cases and an ODP port number in other cases.
Until now, packet processing in ovs-vswitchd has been split between two
components: ofproto, for basic OpenFlow functionality, and bridge, for
OFPP_NORMAL processing. This architecture will not work as Open vSwitch
starts to support a wider variety of underlying hardware, because it
imposes a model in which the bridge needs to be able to look at every
exact-match flow within a OpenFlow flow, which most hardware doesn't
support.
Therefore, this commit moves all of the packet processing code in
bridge into ofproto, as preparation for generalizing further.
This is intended to provide controllers enough information to determine
whether a switch is overloaded or busted, to enable them to spread load
fairly across a group of switches.
Feature #2421.
