The pfil(9) system is about to be converted to epoch(9) synchronization, so
we need [temporarily] go back with ipfw internal locking.
Discussed with: ae
Make PFIL's lock global and use it for this purpose.
This reduces the number of locks needed to acquire for each packet.

* Ensure we're flushing entries without any locks held.
* Free memory in (rare) case when interface tracker fails to register ifp.
* Add KASSERT on table values refcounts.
* Rewrite interface tables to use interface indexes
Kernel changes:
* Add generic interface tracking API:
- ipfw_iface_ref (must call unlocked, performs lazy init if needed, allocates
state & bumps ref)
- ipfw_iface_add_ntfy(UH_WLOCK+WLOCK, links comsumer & runs its callback to
update ifindex)
- ipfw_iface_del_ntfy(UH_WLOCK+WLOCK, unlinks consumer)
- ipfw_iface_unref(unlocked, drops reference)
Additionally, consumer callbacks are called in interface withdrawal/departure.
* Rewrite interface tables to use iface tracking API. Currently tables are
implemented the following way:
runtime data is stored as sorted array of {ifidx, val} for existing interfaces
full data is stored inside namedobj instance (chained hashed table).
* Add IP_FW_XIFLIST opcode to dump status of tracked interfaces
* Pass @chain ptr to most non-locked algorithm callbacks:
(prepare_add, prepare_del, flush_entry ..). This may be needed for better
interaction of given algorithm an other ipfw subsystems
* Add optional "change_ti" algorithm handler to permit updating of
cached table_info pointer (happens in case of table_max resize)
* Fix small bug in ipfw_list_tables()
* Add badd (insert into sorted array) and bdel (remove from sorted array) funcs
Userland changes:
* Add "iflist" cmd to print status of currently tracked interface
* Add stringnum_cmp for better interface/table names sorting
