* Where Open Flow 1.2 breaks apart error codes defined
in previous versions, provide all new definitions to
previous versions and map the numeric error code to
the first first definition supplied in ofp-errors.h.
The case handled so far is:
OFPERR_OFPBIC_BAD_EXP_TYPE -> { OFPERR_OFPBIC_BAD_EXPERIMENTER,
OFPERR_OFPBIC_BAD_EXP_TYPE }
* Where Open Flow 1.2 adds error codes that were previously
defined as Nicira extension errors define the later in terms
of the new codes.

[blp@nicira.com added better error checking in extract-ofp-errors, added
unit tests, miscellaneous cleanup]

In general, I guess that the common case is for most error codes to be
retained without change in future versions of OpenFlow, so to me it seems
best to use the "+" version "by default".

This seems like a more reasonable way to do things given that we will soon
need "OpenFlow 1.1 and later" and "OpenFlow 1.1 only" keywords.

Nicira's controllers are somewhat heterogeneous, so that particular
"packet-in" messages should be directed to particular controllers. This
new Nicira extension action allows designating a controller or controllers
to receive the "packet-in" using a 16-bit integer ID.
The new NXAST_CONTROLLER action also specifies the "reason" code to include
in the "packet-in" message. This is particularly useful for simulating a
"no-match" "packet-in" using a rule.
Feature #8946.

This commit switches from using the actual protocol values of error codes
internally in Open vSwitch, to using abstract values that are translated to
and from protocol values at message parsing and serialization time. I
believe that this makes the code easier to read and to write.
This is also one step along the way toward OpenFlow 1.1 support because
OpenFlow 1.1 renumbered a bunch of error codes.
