These functions will take either an IPv4/IPv6 address, or an IPv4/IPv6
prefix, and cast them to their canonical form. Notably for IPv6 addresses,
this means lower case and with the 0-tuples correctly formatted:
2001:DB8::1 becomes 2001:db8::1
2001:db8:0:0::1 becomes 2001:db8::1
This avoids spurious diffs in vppcfg when comparing to the output of the VPP
dataplane.

A reasonable attempt will be made to shorten the output of terms, but
due to the nature of the ACL plugin in VPP, all ACLs will be unrolled
into their individual ACEs (called 'terms').
- src/dst-port will only be emitted with UDP/TCP
- icmp-typc/code will only be emitted with ICMP/ICMPv6
- icmp-code/type and source/destination-ports ranges will be collapsed
where appropriate.
- if protocol is 0, only L3 information will be emitted
NOTE: a bug in the VPP plugin will allow for ICMP 'sport' and 'dport'
upper value to be 16 bits. If an ACE is retrieved from the dataplane
regarding an ICMP or ICMPv6 (referring the 16 bit values to icmp type
and code), they will be truncated and a warning issued.
For ACE 'source' and 'destination' is now possible to specify one of:
- ipv4 or ipv6 address
- ipv4 or ipv6 prefix
- name of a prefixlist
The validator resolves the src/dst network list, optionally filtering
this with the desired 'family' (which defaults to 'any'). Errors are
raised if the resulting src/dst network lists do not overlap, that is
to say if all src entries are IPv4 but there are no IPv4 dst entries
and vise-versa.
* Update the example to have a 'trusted' prefixlist.
* Update the unit tests to use the new error message(s).
First stab at integrating the acl-plugin from VPP. Allow to craft ACLs
consisting of one-or-more ACEs (this is ensured by 'terms' being
required with min=1), and a rich language to be able to set any L3
and L4 (UDP, ICMP, TCP) matchers that the plugin provides.
Explain how the syntax will look like, although for now only YAMALE
syntax checking can be performed (semantic validation is next).
