trafgen: l7: Add DNS header generation API
Add trafgen_l7.c module with DNS proto header generation with support of filling DNS query/answer/authority/additional sections as sub headers. Introcuded new concept as 'sub header' which is needed to easy handle DNS sections which might be added on-demand, and to simplify using sub-header as regular header with a fields, offset, etc. There is a parent header which contains array of pointers of sub-headers, and the array is ordered as they are located in the parent header. The sub-headers mostly encapsulated by the parent header which 'knows' the semantic of them. The new proto_hdr->push_sub_header(...) callback was added to tell the parent header to push the sub-header's fields, sub-header also may have proto_ops which must be filled by the parent. This sub-header concept might be used in the future if it will be needed to support DHCP, WLAN headers. There are 4 kinds of DNS sub-headers - query, answer, authority, additional. 'id' of each sub-header is used to only differentiate these types of sections. These sections have strict order inside DNS header, and there was added the proto_hdr_move_sub_header(...) to sort them in required order. Actually there are only 2 proto_hdr's which describes 4 DNS sections - query & rrecord, because rrecord covers another 3 - answer, auhority, additional which have the same layout.
