[PKT_SCHED]: Kill pkt_act.h inlining.

This was simply making templates of functions and mostly causing a lot
of code duplication in the classifier action modules.

We solve this more cleanly by having a common "struct tcf_common" that
hash worker functions contained once in act_api.c can work with.

Callers work with real action objects that have the common struct
plus their module specific struct members.  You go from a common
object to the higher level one using a "to_foo()" macro which makes
use of container_of() to do the dirty work.

This also kills off act_generic.h which was only used by act_simple.c
and keeping it around was more work than the it's value.
