Type: improvement
Allow vapi to signal to an application's RX thread that it should wake
up and exit.
Before disconnecting from VPP's API, libvlibmemoryclient inserts an
rx_thread_exit message into the client's own input queue to cause its
RX thread to wake up from its blocking dequeue and exit cleanly. Add a
function to vapi's API which will allow libvapi client applications
which have an RX thread waiting for incoming messages using vapi_wait()
to do the same thing.
The existing libvlibmemoryclient code which does this was moved to a
separate function and made available for vapi_stop_rx_thread() to call.
Also fixed some inconsistencies in indentation of function prototypes in
vapi.h to make checkstyle.sh happy.
