Jarno Rajahalme 1c4dd4246c lib: Add new 'counting cmap' type.
cmap implements duplicates as linked lists, which causes removal of
rules to become (O^2) with large number of duplicates.  This patch
fixes the problem by introducing a new 'counting' variant of the cmap
(ccmap), which can be efficiently used to keep counts of inserted hash
values provided by the caller.  This does not require a node in the
user data structure, so this makes the user implementation a bit more
memory efficient, too.

/* Concurrent hash map for numerical counts of given hash values.
* ==============================================================
*
* A single-writer, multiple-reader count hash table that efficiently supports
* duplicates.
*
*
* Thread-safety
* =============
*
* The general rules are:
*
* - Only a single thread may safely call into ccmap_inc(),
* or ccmap_dec() at any given time.
*
* - Any number of threads may use functions and macros that search
* a given ccmap, even in parallel with other threads
* calling ccmap_inc() or ccmap_dec().
