David Gibson 0060acd11b flow: Clarify and enforce flow state transitions
Flows move over several different states in their lifetime.  The rules for
these are documented in comments, but they're pretty complex and a number
of the transitions are implicit, which makes this pretty fragile and
error prone.

Change the code to explicitly track the states in a field.  Make all
transitions explicit and logged.  To the extent that it's practical in C,
enforce what can and can't be done in various states with ASSERT()s.

While we're at it, tweak the docs to clarify the restrictions on each state
a bit.

/**
* enum flow_state - States of a flow table entry
*
* An individual flow table entry moves through these states, usually in this
* order.
* General rules:
* - Code outside flow.c should never write common fields of union flow.
* - The state field may always be read.
*
* FREE - Part of the general pool of free flow table entries
* Operations:
* - flow_alloc() finds an entry and moves it to NEW
*
* NEW - Freshly allocated, uninitialised entry
* Operations:
* - flow_alloc_cancel() returns the entry to FREE
* - FLOW_SET_TYPE() sets the entry's type and moves to TYPED
* Caveats:
* - No fields other than state may be accessed
* - At most one entry may be NEW or TYPED at a time, so it's unsafe
* to use flow_alloc() again until this entry moves to ACTIVE or
* FREE
* - You may not return to the main epoll loop while any flow is NEW
*
* TYPED - Generic info initialised, type specific initialisation underway
* Operations:
* - All common fields may be read
* - Type specific fields may be read and written
* - flow_alloc_cancel() returns the entry to FREE
* - FLOW_ACTIVATE() moves the entry to ACTIVE
* Caveats:
* - At most one entry may be NEW or TYPED at a time, so it's unsafe
* to use flow_alloc() again until this entry moves to ACTIVE or
* FREE
* - You may not return to the main epoll loop while any flow is
* TYPED
*
* ACTIVE - An active, fully-initialised flow entry
* Operations:
* - All common fields may be read
* - Type specific fields may be read and written
* - Flow returns to FREE when it expires, signalled by returning
* 'true' from flow type specific deferred or timer handler
* Caveats:
* - flow_alloc_cancel() may not be called on it
