Applications are now provided the option to select the namespace they
are to be attached to and the scope of their attachement. Application
namespaces are meant to:
1) constrain the scope of communication through the network by
association with source interfaces and/or fib tables that provide the
source ips to be used and limit the scope of routing
2) provide a namespace local scope to session layer communication, as
opposed to the global scope provided by 1). That is, sessions can be
established without assistance from transport and network layers.
Albeit, zero/local-host ip addresses must still be provided in session
establishment messages due to existing application idiosyncrasies. This
mode of communication uses shared-memory fifos (cut-through sessions)
exclusively.
If applications request no namespace, they are assigned to the default
one, which at its turn uses the default fib. Applications can request
access to both local and global scopes for a namespace. If no scope is
specified, session layer defaults to the global one.
When a sw_if_index is provided for a namespace, zero-ip (INADDR_ANY)
binds are converted to binds to the requested interface.

- Cleanup half-open connections and timers on the right thread
- Ensure half-open connection and transport endpoint pools are thread safe
- Enqueue TX events to the correct vpp thread in the builtin client
- Use transport proto in transport connections instead of session type

- refactor existing congestion control code (RFC 6582/5681). Handling of ack
feedback now consists of: ack parsing, cc event detection, event handling,
congestion control update
- extend sack scoreboard to support sack based retransmissions
- basic implementation of Eifel detection algorithm (RFC 3522) for
detecting spurious retransmissions
- actually initialize the per-thread frame freelist hash tables
- increase worker stack size to 2mb
- fix session queue node out-of-buffer handling
- ensure that the local buffer cache vec_len matches reality
- avoid 2x spurious event requeues when short of buffers
- count out-of-buffer events
- make the builtin server thread-safe
- fix bihash template threading issue: need to paint -1 across uninitialized
working_copy_length vector elements (via rebase from master)

The session ends up in established state, and is hand-crafted to look
like it was created by the builtin_server.
This will come in handy for injecting packets into tcp46-established,
along with ancillary debug CLI to adjust connection parameters.
Immediate applications include screwball window cases, out of order
segments, paws checking, and so on and so forth.
Debug CLI script:
loop create
set int ip address loop0 6.0.1.1/8
set int state loop0 up
set ip arp loop0 6.0.1.2 feed.face.babe
test tcp server
test tcp session
packet-generator new {
name tcp
limit 1
node ip4-input
size 100-100
interface loop0
no-recycle
data {
TCP: 6.0.1.2 -> 6.0.1.1
TCP: 11234 -> 1234
ACK window 2000
seqnum 0
acknum 0
incrementing 100
}
