Add support for unique ID for each learner table entry. The entry ID
is retrieved as part of the learner table lookup operation and is
saved by the pipeline for later use.

Make the hash function configurable. The internal hash function that
was not configurable, mask-based and limited to 64 bytes is removed.

This patch replaces instances of zero-sized arrays i.e. those at the end
of structures with "[0]" with the more standard syntax of "[]".
Replacement was done using coccinelle script, with some revert and
cleanup of whitespace afterwards.

Previously, on lookup hit, the hit key had its timer automatically
rearmed with the same timeout in order to prevent its expiration. Now,
a broader set of actions is available on lookup hit, which has to be
managed explicitly: the key can have its timer rearmed with the same
or with a different timeout, or the key timer can be left unmodified.
The latter option allows the key to expire naturally when the timer
eventually runs out, unless the key is hit again and its timer rearmed
at that point. Needed by the TCP connection tracking state machine.

A learner table is typically used for learning or connection tracking,
where it allows for the implementation of the "add on miss" scenario:
whenever the lookup key is not found in the table (lookup miss), the
data plane can decide to add this key to the table with a given action
with no control plane intervention. Likewise, the table keys expire
based on a configurable timeout and are automatically deleted from the
table with no control plane intervention.
