João Valverde aaff0d21ae dfilter: Add layer support for references
This adds support for using the layers filter
with field references.

Before:
    $ dftest 'ip.src != ${ip.src#2}'
    dftest: invalid character in macro name

After:
    $ dftest 'ip.src != ${ip.src#2}'
    Filter: ip.src != ${ip.src#2}

    Syntax tree:
     0 TEST_ALL_NE:
       1 FIELD(ip.src <FT_IPv4>)
       1 REFERENCE(ip.src#[2:1] <FT_IPv4>)

    Instructions:
    00000 READ_TREE		ip.src <FT_IPv4> -> reg#0
    00001 IF_FALSE_GOTO	5
    00002 READ_REFERENCE_R	${ip.src <FT_IPv4>} #[2:1] -> reg#1
    00003 IF_FALSE_GOTO	5
    00004 ALL_NE		reg#0 != reg#1
    00005 RETURN

This requires adding another level of complexity to references.
When loading references we need to copy the 'proto_layer_num'
and add the logic to filter on that.

The "layer" sttype is removed and replace by a new
field sttype with support for a range. This is a nice
cleanup for the semantic check and general simplification.
The grammar is better too with this design.

Range sttype is renamed to slice for clarity.
