*) bgp - added NLRI filter for more precise accept/discard of ipv4/6 prefixes;
*) bgp - decode and log notifications;
*) bgp - introduced BGP instance configuration (note, downgrading to earlier versions without instance support may cause config issues);
*) bgp - print aigp attribute in advertisements;
*) bridge - added verbose STP debug logging (rx/tx BPDU, edge-port and port-role transitions, FDB flush);
*) bridge - disable/enable HW offload on bonding slave disable/enable (fixes potential MAC learning issue);
*) bridge - fixed port-id when adding a new port in non-primary MLAG;
