The initialisation of P4TC action instances require access to a struct p4tc_act
(which appears in later patches) to help us to retrieve information like the
dynamic action parameters etc. In order to retrieve struct p4tc_act we need the
pipeline name or id and the action name or id. Also recall that P4TC
action IDs are dynamic and  are net namespace specific. The init callback from
tc_action_ops parameters had no way of supplying us that information. To solve
this issue, we decided to create a new tc_action_ops callback (init_ops), that
provides us with the tc_action_ops struct which then provides us with the
pipeline and action name. In addition we add a new refcount to struct
tc_action_ops called dyn_ref, which accounts for how many action instances we
have of a specific dynamic action.
