afs: Provide a way to configure address priorities

AFS servers may have multiple addresses, but the client can't easily judge
between them as to which one is best.  For instance, an address that has a
larger RTT might actually have a better bandwidth because it goes through a
switch rather than being directly connected - but we can't work this out
dynamically unless we push through sufficient data that we can measure it.

To allow the administrator to configure this, add a list of preference
weightings for server addresses by IPv4/IPv6 address or subnet and allow
this to be viewed through a procfile and altered by writing text commands
to that same file.  Preference rules can be added/updated by:

	echo "add <proto> <addr>[/<subnet>] <prior>" >/proc/fs/afs/addr_prefs
	echo "add udp 1.2.3.4 1000" >/proc/fs/afs/addr_prefs
	echo "add udp 192.168.0.0/16 3000" >/proc/fs/afs/addr_prefs
	echo "add udp 1001:2002:0:6::/64 4000" >/proc/fs/afs/addr_prefs

and removed by:

	echo "del <proto> <addr>[/<subnet>]" >/proc/fs/afs/addr_prefs
	echo "del udp 1.2.3.4" >/proc/fs/afs/addr_prefs

where the priority is a number between 0 and 65535.

The list is split between IPv4 and IPv6 addresses and each sublist is kept
in numerical order, with rules that would otherwise match but have
different subnet masking being ordered with the most specific submatch
first.

A subsequent patch will apply these rules.
