bond: Add bonding driver and LACP protocol

Add bonding driver to support creation of bond interface which composes of
multiple slave interfaces. The slave interfaces could be physical interfaces,
or just any virtual interfaces. For example, memif interfaces.

The syntax to create a bond interface is
create bond mode <lacp | xor | acitve-backup | broadcast | round-robin>

To enslave an interface to the bond interface,
enslave interface TenGigabitEthernet6/0/0 to BondEthernet0

Please see src/plugins/lacp/lacp_doc.md for more examples and additional
options.

LACP is a control plane protocol which manages and monitors the status of
the slave interfaces. The protocol is part of 802.3ad standard. This patch
implements LACPv1. LACPv2 is not supported.
To enable LACP on the bond interface, specify "mode lacp" when the bond
interface is created. The syntax to enslave a slave interface is the same as
other bonding modes.

+# VPP Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) implementation    {#lacp_doc}
+
+This document is to describe the usage of VPP LACP implementation.
+
+
+## LACP
+
+The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) is an 802.3ad standard which
+provides a protocol for exchanging information between Partner Systems on a
+link to allow their protocol instances to reach agreement on the Link Aggregation
+Group to which the link belongs and enable transmission and reception for the
+higher layer. Multiple links may be bundled to the same Aggregation Group to form
+a high bandwidth transmission medium and create a fault-tolerant link.
+
+
+### Configuration
+
+1. Create the bond interface
+create bond mode lacp [hw-addr <mac-address>] [load-balance { l2 | l23 | l34 }]
+
+2. Enslave the physical interface to the bond
+enslave interface <interface> to <bond-interface-name> [passive] [long-timeout]"
+
+3. Delete the bond interface
+delete bond {<interface> | sw_if_index <sw_idx>}
+
+4. Detach the slave interface from the bond
+detach interface <interface>
+
+### Configuration example
+
+create bond mode lacp
+set interface state BondEthernet0 up
+enslave interface TenGigabitEthernet7/0/0 to BondEthernet1
+enslave interface TenGigabitEthernet7/0/1 to BondEthernet1
+enslave interface TenGigabitEthernet5/0/0 to BondEthernet1
+enslave interface TenGigabitEthernet5/0/1 to BondEthernet1
+
+detach interface TenGigabitEthernet5/0/1
+
+delete bond BondEthernet0
