there are, intentionally, no validation checks in the ARP/ND code to prevent an ARP/ND entry from being installed for an address that is not local to the interface's sub-net. This is ok, since the adjacency/FIB code is designed to handle this case using the 'refinement' criteria - i.e. only installing a FIB entry for the address if the address 'refines' (i.e. is more specific than) the interface's sub-net.
However, the refinement criteria currently operates on the FIB entry's prefix (which is a /32, so on the address) and not on the next-hop in the path.
So, enter multiple ARP entries for the same address on different links, and this refinement criteria uses only the last added path, and so will remove the FIB entry should the ARP entries be added in the 'wrong' order.
This fix updates the refinement criteria to work on each path of the FIB entry. The entry is installed if one of the paths refines the covers and only paths refining the cover contribute forwarding.
Per-path refinement checks are stored in path-extensions. The patch is rather large as path-extension, which were previously used only for out-going MPLS labels, have been generalized.

- only build them for popular path-lists (where popular means more than 64 children)
the reason to have a map is to improve convergence speed for recursive prefixes - if there are only a few this technique is not needed
- only build them when there is at least one path that has recursive constraints, i.e. a path that can 'fail' in a PIC scenario.
- Use the MAPS in the switch path.
- PIC test cases for functionality (not convergence performance)

1 - interface-DPO
Used in the Data-plane to change a packet's input interface
2 - MPLS multicast FIB entry
Same as a unicast entry but it links to a replicate not a load-balance DPO
3 - Multicast MPLS tunnel
Update MPLS tunnels to use a FIB path-list to describe the endpoint[s]. Use the path-list to generate the forwarding chain (DPOs) to link to .
4 - Resolve a path via a local label (of an mLDP LSP)
For IP multicast entries to use an LSP in the replication list, we need to decribe the 'resolve-via-label' where the label is that of a multicast LSP.
5 - MPLS disposition path sets RPF-ID
For a interface-less LSP (i.e. mLDP not RSVP-TE) at the tail of the LSP we still need to perform an RPF check. An MPLS disposition DPO performs the MPLS pop validation checks and sets the RPF-ID in the packet.
6 - RPF check with per-entry RPF-ID
An RPF-ID is used instead of a real interface SW if index in the case the IP traffic arrives from an LSP that does not have an associated interface.

- IPv[46] mfib tables with support for (*,G/m), (*,G) and (S,G) exact and longest prefix match
- Replication represented via a new replicate DPO.
- RPF configuration and data-plane checking
- data-plane signals sent to listening control planes.
The functions of multicast forwarding entries differ from their unicast conterparts, so we introduce a new mfib_table_t and mfib_entry_t objects. However, we re-use the fib_path_list to resolve and build the entry's output list. the fib_path_list provides the service to construct a replicate DPO for multicast.
'make tests' is added to with two new suites; TEST=mfib, this is invocation of the CLI command 'test mfib' which deals with many path add/remove, flag set/unset scenarios, TEST=ip-mcast, data-plane forwarding tests.
Updated applications to use the new MIFB functions;
- IPv6 NS/RA.
- DHCPv6
unit tests for these are undated accordingly.

1) vec_free the fe_srcs of a fib_entry_t when the fib_entry_t is itself reed
2) in the load-balance fixup if a drop path is required add this to a new vector of next-hops 'fixed_nhs'. This vector is managed by the load-balance function. The caller continues to manage its own set. The function is now const implying that the caller is safe to assume the next-hops do not change.
