This commit adds a new command to allow the user to enable
autovalidatior by default at build time thus allowing for
runnig unit test by default.
$ ./configure --enable-mfex-default-autovalidator

The study function runs all the available implementations
of miniflow_extract and makes a choice whose hitmask has
maximum hits and sets the mfex to that function.
Study can be run at runtime using the following command:
$ ovs-appctl dpif-netdev/miniflow-parser-set study

This patch introduced the auto-validation function which
allows users to compare the batch of packets obtained from
different miniflow implementations against the linear
miniflow extract and return a hitmask.
The autovaidator function can be triggered at runtime using the
following command:
$ ovs-appctl dpif-netdev/miniflow-parser-set autovalidator

This patch introduces the MFEX function pointers which allows
the user to switch between different miniflow extract implementations
which are provided by the OVS based on optimized ISA CPU.
The user can query for the available minflow extract variants available
for that CPU by following commands:
$ovs-appctl dpif-netdev/miniflow-parser-get
Similarly an user can set the miniflow implementation by the following
command :
$ ovs-appctl dpif-netdev/miniflow-parser-set name
This allows for more performance and flexibility to the user to choose
the miniflow implementation according to the needs.
