netfilter: ipvs: Add configurations of Maglev hashing
To build the maglev hashing scheduler, add some configuration to Kconfig and Makefile. - The compile configurations of MH are added to the Kconfig. - The MH build rule is added to the Makefile.

+ tristate "maglev hashing scheduling"
+ ---help---
+ The maglev consistent hashing scheduling algorithm provides the
+ Google's Maglev hashing algorithm as a IPVS scheduler. It assigns
+ network connections to the servers through looking up a statically
+ assigned special hash table called the lookup table. Maglev hashing
+ is to assign a preference list of all the lookup table positions
+ to each destination.
+
+ Through this operation, The maglev hashing gives an almost equal
+ share of the lookup table to each of the destinations and provides
+ minimal disruption by using the lookup table. When the set of
+ destinations changes, a connection will likely be sent to the same
+ destination as it was before.

+ The maglev hashing scheduler maps source IPs to destinations
+ stored in a hash table. This table is assigned by a preference
+ list of the positions to each destination until all slots in
+ the table are filled. The index determines the prime for size of
+ the table as 251, 509, 1021, 2039, 4093, 8191, 16381, 32749,
+ 65521 or 131071. When using weights to allow destinations to
+ receive more connections, the table is assigned an amount
