This removes a giant `switch { }` block from lib/zclient.c and
harmonizes all zclient callback function types to be the same (some had
a subset of the args, some had a void return, now they all have
ZAPI_CALLBACK_ARGS and int return.)
Apart from getting rid of the giant switch, this is a minor security
benefit since the function pointers are now in a `const` array, so they
can't be overwritten by e.g. heap overflows for code execution anymore.

We were not properly cleaning up some memory in the pim mlag
subsystem. Clean it up on exit.

Initially, MLAG Sync is happened at pim_ifchannel, this is mainly to
support even config mismatches(missing configuration of dual active).
But this causes more syncs for each entry.
and also it is not In-line with PIM EVPN. to avoid that moving to
pm_upstream based syncing.

There was some code missed during the upstreaming process
due to code squash. Identify and put into a commit
to keep code consistent and correct.

1. Upstream entries associated with tunnel termination mroutes are
synced to the MLAG peer via the local MLAG daemon.
2. These entries are installed in the peer switch (via an upstream
ref flag).
3. DF (Designated Forwarder) election is run per-upstream entry by both
the MLAG switches -
a. The switch with the lowest RPF cost is the DF winner
b. If both switches have the same RPF cost the MLAG role is
used as a tie breaker with the MLAG primary becoming the DF
winner.
4. The DF winner terminates the multicast traffic by adding the tunnel
termination device to the OIL. The non-DF suppresses the termination
device from the OIL.
Note: Before the PIM-MLAG interface was available hidden config was
used to test the EVPN-PIM functionality with MLAG. I have removed the
code to persist that config to avoid confusion. The hidden commands are
still available.

when ever a FRR Client wants to send any data to another node
using MLAG Channel, uses below mechanisam.
1. sends a MLAG Registration to zebra with interested messages that
it is intended to receive from peer.
2. In response to this request, Zebra opens communication channel with
MLAG. and also in Rx. diretion zebra forwards only those messages which
client shown interest during registration
3. when client is no-longer interested in communicating with MLAG, client
posts De-register to Zebra
4. if this is the last client which is interested for MLAG Communication,
zebra closes the channel.
why PIM Needs MLAG Communication
================================
1. In general on LAN Networks elecetd DR will send the Join towards
Multicast RP in case of a LHR and Register in case of FHR.
2. But in case DR Goes down, traffic will be re-converged only after
the New DR is elected, but this can take time based on Hold Timer to
detect the DR down.
3. this can be optimised by using MLAG Mecganisam.
4. and also Traffic can be forwarded more efficiently by knowing the cost
towards RP using MLAG
