Handling of each protocol needs some degree of tracking of the addresses
and ports at the end of each connection or flow. Sometimes that's explicit
(as in the guest visible addresses for TCP connections), sometimes implicit
(the bound and connected addresses of sockets).
To allow more general and robust handling, and more consistency across
protocols we want to uniformly track the address and port at each end of
the connection. Furthermore, because we allow port remapping, and we
sometimes need to apply NAT, the addresses and ports can be different as
seen by the guest/namespace and as by the host.
Introduce 'struct flowside' to keep track of common information related to
one side of each flow. For now that's the addresses, ports and the pif id.
Store two of these in the common fields of a flow to track that information
for both sides.
For now we just introduce the structure and fields themselves, along with
a simple helper. Later patches will actually use these to store useful
information.
