  ofproto/trace: Add support for tracing conntrack recirculation

Previously, a user need to run ofproto/trace multiple times to derive the
final datapath actions if a flow hit conntrack actions that involves
recirculation. To improve the usability of ofproto/trace, in this patch,
we keep track of the conntrack actions, and automatically run the
recirculation process so that a user only need to execute the ofproto/trace
command once. Currently, this patch sets the default ct_state as
trk and new in the automatic recirculation process. A following patch
will provide an option to customize ct_state.

  ofproto/trace: Add --ct-next option to ofproto/trace

Previous patch enables ofproto/trace to automatically trace a flow
that involves multiple recirculation on conntrack. However, it always
sets the ct_state to trk|est when it processes recirculated conntrack flows.
With this patch, users can customize the expected next ct_state in the
aforementioned use case.
