Message: dpif-netdev: Expand the meter capacity using cmap

For now, ovs-vswitchd use the array of the dp_meter struct
to store meter's data, and at most, there are only 65536
(defined by MAX_METERS) meters that can be used. But in some
case, for example, in the edge gateway, we should use 200,000+,
at least, meters for IP address bandwidth limitation.
Every one IP address will use two meters for its rx and tx
path[1]. In other way, ovs-vswitchd should support meter-offload
(rte_mtr_xxx api introduced by dpdk.), but there are more than
65536 meters in the hardware, such as Mellanox ConnectX-6.

This patch use cmap to manage the meter, instead of the array.

* Insertion performance, ovs-ofctl add-meter 1000+ meters,
  the cmap takes abount 4000ms, as same as previous implementation.
* Lookup performance in datapath, we add 1000+ meter which rate is
  10G (the NIC cards are 10Gb, so netdev-datapath will not drop the
  packets.), and a flow which only forwarding the packets from p0
  to p1, with meter action[2]. On other server, the pktgen-dpdk
  will generate 64B packets to p0.
  The forwarding performance is 4,814,400 pps. Without this path,
  4,935,584 pps. There are about 1% performance loss. For addressing
  this issue, next patch add a meter cache.
