ofproto: Start work to enable datapaths with built-in wildcard support.
The "xflow" interface assumes that the datapath supports only exact-match
flows. This seems to be one reasonable way to implement a datapath in
software, but some hardware datapaths have built-in support for flows that
include wildcards. Until now, OVS has not been able to take advantage of
this feature. This commit is a beginning of that support. It works, to
some extent, but it is incomplete in many ways, and should be considered
a prototype.
