The FAQ says:
### Q: How do I add support for a new OpenFlow action?
A: Add your new action to "enum ofp_raw_action_type" in
lib/ofp-actions.c, following the existing pattern. Then recompile
and fix all of the new warnings, implementing new functionality for
the new action as needed. (If you configure with --enable-Werror,
as described in [INSTALL.md], then it is impossible to miss any
warnings.)
If you need to add an OpenFlow vendor extension action for a vendor
that doesn't yet have any extension actions, then you will also
need to edit build-aux/extract-ofp-actions.
