Hi BIRD devs,

Akamai team have implemented basic subset of BMP (BGP Monitoring Protocol) 
specification for BIRD project (according to RFC 7854). We are happy to share 
our work with BIRD community and would ask for review patch. Please feel free 
for modify this patch to meet BIRD source code requirements for merge it to 
BIRD mainline code since we post this patch under to GPLv2+ license (please 
look at |proto/bmp/LICENSE|).
It worth to note that there are few minor unimplemented things from RFC 7854, 
but the most important are:
- not implemented Route Mirroring message
- not implemented Stats Report message

This implementation has been tested with open source BMP collectors like 
OpenBMP and pmacct. This patch is compatible with BIRD v2.0.7 release.

Additionally I would like to take the opportunity to thank Ondrej Zajicek for 
hints to contribution of this patch according to BIRD project specification.

Thanks,
Pawel Maslanka
Software Engineer at Akamai Technologies, Inc.
