This patch is to add IEEE 802.1AS-2011 time-aware bridge support
based on current BC clock type. It implements only time information
relay, and BMCA was not touched. To run it, the profile gPTP.cfg could
be used with multiple interfaces specified using -i option.
The main code changes are,
- Create syfu_relay_info structure for time information relay.
- Implement port_syfu_relay_info_insert() to update follow_up (with TLV)
message with time information for relay.

IEEE 1588 v2.1 and ITU G.8275.1/2 call for an optional "synchronization
uncertain" flag passed in Announce messages along with the other flags
from the time properties data set. The value of the flag depends is a
logical OR function of the inputs from the remote master and the local
process. This patch adds background support for handling the flag.

Add attribute maxStepsRemoved which is included in IEEE1588-2017 (v2.1)
It is an optional attribute which can decide if an Announce message is
considered in the operation of the BMCA or not.

There is no need to keep two copies of the data set comparison

The function clock_check_ts() performs open-coded manipulation of a
struct timespec instead of using the tmv_t abstractions.
Use the existing tmv_t abstractions to convert from struct timespec to
nanoseconds, and modify the prototype of clock_check_ts() to match
that of the underlying clockcheck_sample().

With rtnl socket we can track link status per port(except UDS port).
We can make sure we get the correct interface and latest status with function
port_link_status().
At the same time we need to set clock sde after link down. But we return
EV_FAULT_DETECTED in port_event(), which will not set clock sde. So we need
to set it in port_link_status().

With the new configuration API, there is no need to pass the default data

When switching clock devices in JBOD mode, we need to be able to reset the
servo. The existing servo_reset() function will not serve us well, because
in this case we also need to seed the existing frequency offset and limit.
This patch adds a new method that simply starts the servo from scratch.
In the unlikely event of a resource allocation failure, the method will
simply continue to use the previous device, which is better than nothing
and certainly preferable to bailing out the program.

Remove the limit of MAX_PORTS ports (default 8) and keep the ports in
a linked list. This allows ptp4l to be used on large machines and in the
future, it will allow dynamic adding and removing of ports while ptp4l is
running.
For this to work, pollfd needs to be dynamically allocated. Changed pollfd
handling from clock_install_fda/clock_remove_fda to notification
(clock_fda_changed), where the clock will rebuild pollfd by querying all its
ports.

Split management message creation to more fine-grained functions to allow
notification messages to be created.
The new clock_management_fill_response is called from
clock_management_get_response (so the function behaves exactly the same as
before this patch) and from a new clock_notify_event function. The
difference is clock_management_get_response uses the request message to
construct the reply message, while clock_notify_event constructs the reply
message based on the notification id.

With the new linreg servo the frequency offset and time offset are
controlled separately. The ratio between master's frequency and the
current frequency of the local clock is known and can be used when
calculating delay or peer delay to improve their accuracy.
This greatly improves the stability of the delay when the servo is
correcting a large offset.

Check the sanity of the synchronized clock by comparing its uncorrected
frequency with the system monotonic clock. When the measured frequency
offset is larger than the value of the sanity_freq_limit option (20% by
default), a warning message will be printed and the servo will be reset.
Setting the option to zero disables the check.
This is useful to detect when the clock is broken or adjusted by another
program.

The current code for the timestamping mode does not allow interfaces to have
separate timestamping modes. This is (probably) due to hardware timestamping
mode being required on all ports to work properly.
This patch removes the timestamping field in the struct iface, and makes it a
clock variable which is really what the mode does anyways. Ports get passed
the timestamping mode but no longer appear as though they are separate.
