The packet_limit can fall to 0, leading to a divide by zero abort in
the "packets % packet_limit".
An possible solution would be to apply a lower limit of 1 after the
calculation of packet_limit, but since any number modulo 1 gives 0,
the more efficient solution is to skip the modulo operation for
packet_limit <= 1.
Since this is a fix for a panic observed in stable/12, merging this
fix to stable/12 and stable/13 before expiry of the 3 day waiting
period might be justified, if it works for the reporter of the issue.

The kernel part of ipfw(8) does initialize LibAlias uncondistionally
with an zeroized port range (allowed ports from 0 to 0). During
restucturing of libalias, port ranges are used everytime and are
therefor initialized with different values than zero. The secondary
initialization from ipfw (and probably others) overrides the new
default values and leave the instance in an unfunctional state. The
obvious solution is to detect such reinitializations and use the new
default value instead.

The expiration time of direct address mappings is explicitly
uninitialized. Expire times are always compared during housekeeping.
Despite the uninitialized value does not harm, it's simpler to just
set it to a reasonable default. This was detected during valgrinding

Comparing elements in a tree requires transitiviy. If a < b and b < c
then a must be smaller than c. This way the tree elements are always
pairwise comparable.
Tristate comparsion functions returning values lower, equal, or
greater than zero, are usually implemented by a simple subtraction of
the operands. If the size of the operands are equal to the size of
the result, integer modular arithmetics kick in and violates the
transitivity.
Example:
Working on byte with 0, 120, and 240. Now computing the differences:
120 - 0 = 120
240 - 120 = 120
240 - 0 = -16

Compiling libalias results in warnings about unused functions.
Those warnings are caused by clang's heuristic to consider an inline
function as in use, iff the declaration is in a *.c file.
Declarations in *.h files do not emit those warnings.
Hence the declarations must be moved to an extra *.h file.

Current data structure is using a hash of unordered lists. Those
unordered lists are quite efficient, because the least recently
inserted entries are most likely to be used again. In order to avoid
long search times in other cases, the lists are hashed into many
buckets. Unfortunatly a search for a miss needs an exhaustive
inspection and a careful definition of the hash.
Splay trees offer a similar feature: Almost O(1) for access of the
least recently used entries, and amortized O(ln(n)) for almost all
other cases. Get rid of the hash.
Now the data structure should able to quickly react to external
packets without eating CPU cycles for breakfast, preventing a DoS.

The functionality to detect a newly created link after processing a
single packet is decoupled from the packet processing. Every new
packet is processed asynchronously and will reset the indicator, hence
the function is unusable. I made a Google search for third party code,
which uses the function, and failed to find one.
That's why the function should be removed: It unusable and unused.
A much simplified API/ABI will remain in anything below 14.

terminating a TCP connection.
If a TCP packet must be retransmitted and the data length has changed in the
retransmitted packet, due to the internal workings of TCP, typically when ACK
packets are lost, then there is a 30% chance that the logic in GetDeltaSeqOut()
will find the correct length, which is the last length received.
This can be explained as follows:
If a "227 Entering Passive Mode" packet must be retransmittet and the length
changes from 51 to 50 bytes, for example, then we have three cases for the
list scan in GetDeltaSeqOut(), depending on how many prior packets were
received modulus N_LINK_TCP_DATA=3:
case 1: index 0: original packet 51
index 1: retransmitted packet 50
index 2: not relevant
case 2: index 0: not relevant
index 1: original packet 51
index 2: retransmitted packet 50
case 3: index 0: retransmitted packet 50
index 1: not relevant
index 2: original packet 51
This patch simply changes the searching order for TCP packets, always starting
at the last received packet instead of any received packet, in
GetDeltaAckIn() and GetDeltaSeqOut().
Else no functional changes.
