nexthop: Rename artifacts related to legacy multipath nexthop groups
After resilient next-hop groups have been added recently, there are two types of multipath next-hop groups: the legacy "mpath", and the new "resilient". Calling the legacy next-hop group type "mpath" is unfortunate, because that describes the fact that a packet could be forwarded in one of several paths, which is also true for the resilient next-hop groups. Therefore, to make the naming clearer, rename various artifacts to reflect the assumptions made. Therefore as of this patch: - The flag for multipath groups is nh_grp_entry::is_multipath. This includes the legacy and resilient groups, as well as any future group types that behave as multipath groups. Functions that assume this have "mpath" in the name. - The flag for legacy multipath groups is nh_grp_entry::hash_threshold. Functions that assume this have "hthr" in the name. - The flag for resilient groups is nh_grp_entry::resilient. Functions that assume this have "res" in the name. Besides the above, struct nh_grp_entry::mpath was renamed to ::hthr as well. UAPI artifacts were obviously left intact.
