Next generation Intel® QAT support with Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors
will feature an Intel® QAT cryptography and compression acceleration
engine.
QAT private key provider extension will use qatlib library
(https://github.com/intel/qatlib) to accelerate RSA operations in
handshakes. The extension will look a bit like the existing cryptomb
private key provider. The use case is to move the expensive
cryptographic operations away from the CPU to the accelerator device,
leaving CPU cycles for other use.
Support for Intel® QAT is already present in the mainline Linux kernel
and in Kubernetes device plugins (to expose the device files to
containers). There are previous generations of Intel QAT® hardware
devices, but they are not supported by this extension.

This PR contains the following changes:
* SIP Proxy extension TRA API updated to send additional SIP context (method type and from header), so TRA service can use this information for customized affinity management.
* Fix an error with decoding of SIP headers with a valid format causing Envoy proxy to crash in case of empty header fields.

Intel's IPP (Integrated Performance Primitives) crypto library has support for multi-buffer crypto operations. Briefly, multi-buffer
cryptography is implemented with AVX-512 instructions using a SIMD (single instruction, multiple data) mechanism. Up to eight RSA or ECDSA operations are gathered together into a buffer and processed at the same time, providing potentially improved performance. The AVX-512 instructions are available on recently launched 3rd generation Xeon Scalable server processors (Ice Lake server) processors.
This commit adds a private key provider to accelerate RSA and ECDSA crypto operations on recent Intel Xeon processors. Every worker thread has a queue of up-to-eight crypto operations. When the queue is full or when the timer is triggered, the queue is processed and all the pending handshakes are notified.
The potential performance benefit depends on many factors: the size of the cpuset Envoy is running on, incoming traffic pattern, encryption type (RSA or ECDSA), and key size. In my own testing I saw the biggest performance increase when long RSA keys were used on an Envoy running in a fairly limited environment serving lots of new incoming TLS requests. For more details, see this Intel whitepaper which contains some more information about the AVX-512 instructions and potential performance increase: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/crypto-acceleration-in-xeon-scalable-processors-wp.html
Additional Description:
One new dependency is introduced: Intel’s ipp-crypto library. Currently the PR is using a development version of ipp-crypto because BoringSSL support is not yet part of any release. The ipp-crypto team has indicated that BoringSSL version will be included in future ipp-crypto releases.
Basic tests are provided, and a fake library interface is included for testing on systems without the required AVX-512 instruction set.
Risk Level: Medium (TLS security feature, not enabled by default)
Testing: Unit tests
Docs Changes: API interface is documented
Release Notes: Added CryptoMB private key provider to contrib.
Platform Specific Features: Requires Intel 3rd generation Xeon Scalable server processor for the AVX-512 IFMA instruction set.

This is a first step towards https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/issues/17920
A single proto (kafka mesh) has been swapped from using the udpa
file_status annotation to the xds file_status annotation to avoid a
large amount of churn and a forthcoming migration of many alpha/wip
protos to non alpha/wip. The rest will be audited and swapped in
future PRs. This single one was done to make sure the doc machinary
works properly.

Stop generating v4alpha protos as it won't land in foreseeable future.
This fixes go-control-plane sync because of it fails to generate contrib API correctly.
