Yotam Gigi d5cbf3ff05 tc: Add support for the matchall traffic classifier.
The matchall classifier matches every packet and allows the user to apply
actions on it. In addition, it supports the skip_sw and skip_hw (as can
be found on u32 and flower filter) that direct the kernel to skip the
software/hardware processing of the actions.

This filter is very useful in usecases where every packet should be
matched. For example, packet mirroring (SPAN) can be setup very easily
using that filter.

How to compile this.
--------------------
1. libdbm

arpd needs to have the db4 development libraries. For Debian
users this is the package with a name like libdb4.x-dev.
DBM_INCLUDE points to the directory with db_185.h which
is the include file used by arpd to get to the old format Berkeley
database routines.  Often this is in the db-devel package.

2. make

The makefile will automatically build a Config file which
contains whether or not ATM is available, etc.

3. To make documentation, cd to doc/ directory , then
   look at start of Makefile and set correct values for
   PAGESIZE=a4		, ie: a4 , letter ...	(string)
   PAGESPERPAGE=2	, ie: 1 , 2 ...		(numeric)
   and make there. It assumes, that latex, dvips and psnup
   are in your path.

4. This package includes matching sanitized kernel headers because
   the build environment may not have up to date versions. See Makefile
   if you have special requirements and need to point at different
   kernel include files.
