  ofproto: Use OF1.4+ "importance" as part of eviction criteria.

The "importance" field is considered before flow timeout because I figure
that if you set the importance, you think it's important.

  Implement OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPTC_EVICTION.

OpenFlow 1.4 introduces the ability to turn on flow table eviction with an
OFPT_TABLE_MOD message specifying OFPTC_EVICTION.  It also adds related
machinery to other messages that mention OFPTC_* fields.  This commit adds
support for the new feature, implementing it as a second, parallel way to
enable flow table eviction.  It takes more work than it seems like it
should because there is so much weirdness with the treatment of OFPTC_*
flags over the evolution of OpenFlow; please refer to the explanation in
DESIGN.md for more information.

This commit also adds related support to ovs-ofctl, plus tests.
