David Gibson 43571852e6 flow: Make side 0 always be the initiating side
Each flow in the flow table has two sides, 0 and 1, representing the
two interfaces between which passt/pasta will forward data for that flow.
Which side is which is currently up to the protocol specific code:  TCP
uses side 0 for the host/"sock" side and 1 for the guest/"tap" side, except
for spliced connections where it uses 0 for the initiating side and 1 for
the target side.  ICMP also uses 0 for the host/"sock" side and 1 for the
guest/"tap" side, but in its case the latter is always also the initiating
side.

Make this generically consistent by always using side 0 for the initiating
side and 1 for the target side.  This doesn't simplify a lot for now, and
arguably makes TCP slightly more complex, since we add an extra field to
the connection structure to record which is the guest facing side. This is
an interim change, which we'll be able to remove later.
