Dynamically compute ip feature subgraph order
This change-set enables plugins to add themselves to the ip4/ip6 feature subgraphs without having to modify core vpp engine code at all. Add VNET_IP4/IP6_UNICAST/MULTICAST_FEATURE_INIT macros which express the required ordering constraints, and off you go. Along the way, added an implementation of Warshall's algorithm to vppinfra; to compute the positive transitive closure of a relation. In this case, the relation is "feature A runs before feature B." With that in hand, ip_feature_init_cast(...) computes a partial order across the set of configured feature subgraph nodes. In unit-testing, we discovered VPP-145 - ip4/6 inacl wiped out vnet_buffer(b)->ip>current_config_index, which exists in main. So, we fixed that by moving b->trace_index, adding b->current_config_index, and removing the ip opaque union current_config_index.
