rG63b3c1c77036: pf: support dummynet
Summary

Allow pf to use dummynet pipes and queues.

We re-use the currently unused IPFW_IS_DUMMYNET flag to allow dummynet
to tell us that a packet is being re-injected after being delayed. This
is needed to avoid endlessly looping the packet between pf and dummynet.

How about some attribution here to where this code is coming from!
Especially since there is a black history behind, I hope to never revive!
