This commit adjusts the NSH user space implementation in OVS to
the latest wire format defined in draft-ietf-sfc-nsh-28 (November 3
2017). The NSH_MDTYPE field was reduced from 8 to 4 bits. The FLAGS
field is reduced from 8 to 2 bits. A new 6 bit TTL header field is
added. The TTL field is set to 63 at encap(nsh).
Match and set_field support for the newly introduced TTL header field
and a corresponding dec_nsh_ttl action is not yet included and will be
implemented in a future patch.

Operator '*' will be executed prior to operator '>>',
but we expect operator '>>' is executed prior to '*',
this patch fixed the issue.

MSVC allows [] but not [0] for arrays in struct definitions,
and does not allow nested [] inside a union.

This patch adds support for NSH packet header fields to the OVS
control plane and the userspace datapath. Initially we support the
fields of the NSH base header as defined in
https://www.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-sfc-nsh-13.txt
and the fixed context headers specified for metadata format MD1.
The variable length MD2 format is parsed but the TLV context headers
are not yet available for matching.
The NSH fields are modelled as experimenter fields with the dedicated
experimenter class 0x005ad650 proposed for NSH in ONF. The following
fields are defined:
NXOXM code ofctl name Size Comment
=====================================================================
NXOXM_NSH_FLAGS nsh_flags 8 Bits 2-9 of 1st NSH word
(0x005ad650,1)
NXOXM_NSH_MDTYPE nsh_mdtype 8 Bits 16-23
(0x005ad650,2)
NXOXM_NSH_NEXTPROTO nsh_np 8 Bits 24-31
(0x005ad650,3)
NXOXM_NSH_SPI nsh_spi 24 Bits 0-23 of 2nd NSH word
