Victor Julien 820b0ded82 Add per packet profiling.
Per packet profiling uses tick based accounting. It has 2 outputs, a summary
and a csv file that contains per packet stats.

Stats per packet include:
 1) total ticks spent
 2) ticks spent per individual thread module
 3) "threading overhead" which is simply calculated by subtracting (2) of (1).

A number of changes were made to integrate the new code in a clean way:
a number of generic enums are now placed in tm-threads-common.h so we can
include them from any part of the engine.

Code depends on --enable-profiling just like the rule profiling code.

New yaml parameters:

profiling:
  # packet profiling
  packets:

    # Profiling can be disabled here, but it will still have a
    # performance impact if compiled in.
    enabled: yes
    filename: packet_stats.log
    append: yes

    # per packet csv output
    csv:

      # Output can be disabled here, but it will still have a
      # performance impact if compiled in.
      enabled: no
      filename: packet_stats.csv

Example output of summary stats:

IP ver   Proto   cnt        min      max          avg
------   -----   ------     ------   ----------   -------
 IPv4       6     19436      11448      5404365     32993
 IPv4     256         4      11511        49968     30575

Per Thread module stats:

The proto 256 is a counter for handling of pseudo/tunnel packets.
