acl-plugin: tm: add tuplemerge algorithm for relaxing the hashtable masks
Slightly refactored from the initial implementation of the TupleMerge [1]
algorithm by Valerio Bruschi (valerio.bruschi@telecom-paristech.fr)
[1] James Daly, Eric Torng "TupleMerge: Building Online Packet Classifiers
by Omitting Bits", In Proc. IEEE ICCCN 2017, pp. 1-10
Also add startup parameters to turn on/off the algorithm ("use tuple merge 1/0"),
and a startup parameter to be able to tweak the split threshold
("tuple merge split threshold N"), the default value of the split threshold
is 39 as per paper, but some more tuning might be necessary to find the best
value.
This change, alongside with the optimizations which avoid extra lookups,
significantly reduces the slowdown on the ClassBench generated ACLs, which
are supposed to resemble realistic ACLs seen in use in the field.
