From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@huawei.com>

Add a parser of a generic TLV format:

+-----------------+------------------+-----------------+
| data type (u64) | num fields (u64) | total len (u64) | # header
+--------------+--+---------+--------+---------+-------+
| field1 (u64) | len1 (u64) | value1 (u8 len1) |
+--------------+------------+------------------+
|     ...      |    ...     |        ...       |         # data
+--------------+------------+------------------+
| fieldN (u64) | lenN (u64) | valueN (u8 lenN) |
+--------------+------------+------------------+

Each adopter can define its own data types and fields. The TLV parser does
not need to be aware of those, and calls a callback function with the
callback data, both supplied by the adopter, for every encountered field
during parsing. The adopter can decide in the callback function how each
defined field should be handled/parsed.

Normally, calling tlv_parse() is sufficient for most of the use cases. In
addition, tlv_parse_hdr() and tlv_parse_data() are also provided for more
advanced use cases.

Nesting TLVs is also possible, a callback function can call tlv_parse() to
parse the inner structure.

type-length-value

i.e., a descriptor that contains a value.

IIUC.

Thanks Randy. If it had been "time-length-value (TLV)" then it would
have been obvious :-)
