> Introduce a new Meter API to retrieve a Meter profile and policy

> meter_profile_add() and meter_policy_create() functions.
> That allows to save the pointer and avoid any lookups in the
> corresponding lists for quick access during a flow rule creation.
> Also, it eliminates the need for CIR, CBS and EBS calculations
> and conversion to a PMD-specific format when the profile is used.
> Pointers are destroyed and cannot be used after thecorresponding
> meter_profile_delete() or meter_policy_delete() are called.
