Allow a policer action to enforce a rate-limit based on packets-per-second,
configurable using a packet-per-second rate and burst parameters.
e.g.
# $TC actions add action police pkts_rate 1000 pkts_burst 200 index 1
# $TC actions ls action police
total acts 1
action order 0: police 0x1 rate 0bit burst 0b mtu 4096Mb pkts_rate 1000 pkts_burst 200
ref 1 bind 0

As Jamal pointed out, there are two different approaches to bandwidth
measurement. Try to make this clear by separating them in synopsis and
also documenting the way to fine-tune avrate.
