	in more than one C file Including the exports.h from multiple .c files belonging to a single plugin results in an error. Rework the approach to require the table of function pointers to be filled in by the initialization function. Since the inline functions are compiled in the "caller" context, there is no knowledge about the acl_main structure used by the ACL plugin. To help with that, the signature of inline functions is slightly different, taking the p_acl_main pointer as the first parameter. That pointer is filled into the .p_acl_main field of the method table during the initialization - since the calling of non-inline variants would have required filling the method table, this should give minimal headaches during the use and switch between the two methods.

2018-04-17	ACL based forwarding	Andrew Yourtchenko	1	-0/+758
	A poor man's flow switching or policy based rounting. An ACL is used to match packets and is associated with a [set of] forwarding paths that determine how to forward matched packets - collectively this association is a 'policy'. Policies are then 'attached', in a priority order, to an interface when thaey are encountered as an input feature. If a packet matches no policies it is forwarded normally in the IP FIB. This commit is used to test the "ACL-as-a-service" functionality, which currently compiles, and the existing traffic ACL tests pass in both hash and linear modes.
