Introduction:
========================================================================
This series introduces a new DCB subcommand: rewr, which is used to
configure the in-kernel DCB rewrite table [1].
Rewrite support is added as a separate DCB subcommand, rather than an
APP opt-in flag or similar. This goes in line with what we did to dcbnl,
where rewrite is a separate object. Obviously this requires a bit more
code to implement the new command, but much of the existing dcb-app code
(especially the bookkeeping code) can be reused. In some cases a little
adaptation is needed.
========================================================================
dcb-rewr parameters:
========================================================================
Initially, I have only made support for the prio-pcp and prio-dscp
parameters, as DSCP and PCP are the only selectors that currently have
a user [2] and to be honest, I am not even sure it makes sense to add
dgram, stream, ethtype rewrite support - At least the rewriter of Sparx5
does not support this. Any input here is much appreciated!
Examples:
Rewrite DSCP to 63 for packets with priority 1
$ dcb rewr add dev eth0 prio-dscp 1:63
Rewrite PCP 7 and DEI to 1 for packets with priority 1
$ dcb rewr add dev eth0 prio-pcp 1:7de
A new manpage has been added, to cover the new dcb-rewr subcommand, and
its parameters. Also I took the liberty to clean up a few things in the
dcb-app manpage.

Patch overview:
========================================================================

Patch #3 Moves colon out of callback functions.
Patch #4 Renames protocl print functions from _key to _pid
Patch #5 Modifies the _print_filtered() function for dcb-rewr reuse, by
introducing new callbacks.

for reuse by dcb-rewr
Patch #7 Expose dcb-app functions required by dcb-rewr.
Patch #8 Adds the new dcb-rewr subcommand with initial support for
prio-pcp and prio-dscp rewrite.
Patch #9 Introduces symbol for max DSCP value and updates accordingly.
Patch #10 Adds the dcb-rewr.8 manpage
