advertised is based on the bestpath attribute set, but the
following attributes are aggregated from the attribute sets
of the multipath constituents:
- AS_PATH
- ORIGIN
- COMMUNITIES
- EXTENDED COMMUNITIES
In addition the route is advertised with the NEXT_HOP set
to the router's interface IP address, instead of the NEXT_HOP
of the best path. This is to ensure that traffic will go to this
router so it can be fanned out via the multipath route.

first stage of the best path calculation. The second stage then
selects a winner from each peer AS's best path. In the second stage we
clear multipath set of the non-selected best paths via
bgp_mp_dmed_deselect(). Since the multipath set is already marked up
for the winning path, we don't call bgp_info_mpath_update() after the
second stage calculation.

markup if a DMED selected path loses in stage 2 of the best path
calculation

* Add external declaration of bgp_mp_dmed_deselect()
* bgpd/bgp_route.c
* bgp_best_selection(): If multipath is enabled, build up the mp_list
for the current peer AS, and do the RIB markup the best path from
that AS. In the second stage, clear the RIB markup for the DMED
selected path if it is not selected as best. Only call
bgp_info_mpath_update() in the second stage when not doing
deterministic MED.

information based on the multipath list (mp_list) generated during
the best path calculation. Display "multipath" for paths that are
multipath and also on bestpath if the route is multipath. Flag a
best path with the BGP_INFO_MULTIPATH_CHG if the multipath
set has changed since the last update. This can be used to trigger
updates to zebra and peers.
The multipath markup is a lazily allocated bgp_info_mpath structure
that is added to the best path and any multipaths. The mpath structures
are linked together with the best path element at the head and the
other elements ordered by nexthop and then by peer address. This
markup scheme is updated by calling bgp_info_mpath_update() and passing
in a new mp_list the the current multipath set. There are additional
API's for walking the multipath set, querying the count of multipaths,
and for cleaning up the multipath markup information when freeing path
information.

equal to the best path are accumulated onto an ordered list (mp_list)
if maximum-paths is configured. A future commit will add the
multipath markup to the BGP rib table based on the mp_list. Add
unit test for the added mp_list functions.
Deterministic MED is not supported in this commit, it will be
added later.

There is support to configure this for each (AFI,SAFI), but
currently this configuration is only present for IPv4 unicast:

no maximum-paths [ibgp] [<1-255>]
