This was... a bit of a nightmare.  It took way too long and went down
a bunch of blind alleys.  I'm not sure how much I like the final
result: it's pleasingly terse in some cases, but in others it feels
dangerously subtle, requiring a pretty careful understanding of the
sequencing rules of C's &&, || and , operators.

That said, while I was at many points ready to pack it in and hack my
around the problems limiting the parsing for destination remapping, I
couldn't really think of feasible way to do that either.  So, here we
are.

David Gibson (12):
  Makefile: Add missing PESTO_HEADERS variable
  conf: Use parameter instead of global in conf_nat()
  parse: Start splitting out parsing helpers
  conf: Remove duplicate parsing of -F option
  conf: Clean up conf_ip4_prefix()
  parse: Add helper to parse unsigned integer values
  parse: Move parse_port_range() to new parsing framework
  parse: Add helpers for parsing IP addresses
  conf: Move address configuration into helper function
  conf: Use new parsing tools to handle -a option
  fwd_rule: Allow "all" port specs to be combined with other options
  fwd_rule: Rewrite forward rule parsing using parse.c helpers
