Currently icmp_id_map[][] stores information about ping sockets in a
bespoke structure. Move the same information into new types of flow
in the flow table. To match that change, replace the existing ICMP
timer with a flow-based timer for expiring ping sockets. This has the
advantage that we only need to scan the active flows, not all possible
ids.
We convert icmp_id_map[][] to point to the flow table entries, rather
than containing its own information. We do still use that array for
locating the right ping flows, rather than using a "flow native" form
of lookup for the time being.

Currently we always keep the flow table maximally compact: that is all the
active entries are contiguous at the start of the table. Doing this
sometimes requires moving an entry when one is freed. That's kind of
fiddly, and potentially expensive: it requires updating the hash table for
the new location, and depending on flow type, it may require EPOLL_CTL_MOD,
system calls to update epoll tags with the new location too.
Implement a new way of managing the flow table that doesn't ever move
entries. It attempts to maintain some compactness by always using the
first free slot for a new connection, and mitigates the effect of non
compactness by cheaply skipping over contiguous blocks of free entries.
See the "theory of operation" comment in flow.c for details.

Currently tcp.c open codes the process of allocating a new flow from the
flow table: twice, in fact, once for guest to host and once for host to
guest connections. This duplication isn't ideal and will get worse as we
add more protocols to the flow table. It also makes it harder to
experiment with different ways of handling flow table allocation.
Instead, introduce a function to allocate a new flow: flow_alloc(). In
some cases we currently check if we're able to allocate, but delay the
actual allocation. We now handle that slightly differently with a
flow_alloc_cancel() function to back out a recent allocation. We have that
separate from a flow_free() function, because future changes we have in
mind will need to handle this case a little differently.

In general, the passt code is a bit haphazard about what's a true global
variable and what's in the quasi-global 'context structure'. The
flow_count field is one such example: it's in the context structure,
although it's really part of the same data structure as flowtab[], which
is a genuine global.
Move flow_count to be a regular global to match. For now it needs to be
public, rather than static, but we expect to be able to change that in
future.

flow_table.h, the lower level flow header relies on having the struct
definitions for every protocol specific flow type - so far that means
tcp_conn.h. It doesn't include it itself, so tcp_conn.h must be included
before flow_table.h.
That's ok for now, but as we use the flow table for more things,
flow_table.h will need the structs for all of them, which means the
protocol specific .c files would need to include tcp_conn.h _and_ the
equivalents for every other flow type before flow_table.h every time,
which is weird.
So, although we *mostly* lean towards the include style where .c files need
to handle the include dependencies, in this case it makes more sense to
have flow_table.h include all the protocol specific headers it needs.

In a number of places, we use indices into the flow table to identify a
specific flow. We also have cases where we need to identify a particular
side of a particular flow, and we expect those to become more common as
we generalise the flow table to cover more things.
To assist with that, introduces flow_sidx_t, an index type which identifies
a specific side of a specific flow in the table.

Both tcp.c and tcp_splice.c define CONN_IDX() variants to find the index
of their connection structures in the connection table, now become the
unified flow table. We can easily combine these into a common helper.
While we're there, add some trickery for some additional type safety.
They also define their own CONN() versions, which aren't so easily combined
since they need to return different types, but we can have them use a
common helper.
In the process, we standardise on always using an unsigned type to store
the connection / flow index, which makes more sense. tcp.c's conn_at_idx()
remains for now, but we change its parameter to unsigned to match. That in
turn means we can remove a check for negative values from it.

We want to generalise "connection" tracking to things other than true TCP
connections. Continue implenenting this by renaming the TCP connection
table to the "flow table" and moving it to flow.c. The definitions are
split between flow.h and flow_table.h - we need this separation to avoid
circular dependencies: the definitions in flow.h will be needed by many
headers using the flow mechanism, but flow_table.h needs all those protocol
specific headers in order to define the full flow table entry.
