aa073586f1 Add ability to filter events by priority/cleanups
Clean up the handling of priority levels within rules. It used to be a
mix of strings handled in various places. Now, in falco_common.h there's
a consistent type for priority-as-number as well as a list of
priority-as-string values. Priorities are passed around as numbers
instead of strings. It's still permissive about capitalization.

Also add the ability to load rules by severity. New falco
config option "priority=<val>"/-o priority=<val> specifies the minimum
priority level of rules that will be loaded.

Add unit tests for same. The test suppresses INFO notifications for a
rule/trace file combination that would otherwise generate them.

f547dc97ab Move falco engine to its own library.
Move the c++ and lua code implementing falco engine/falco common to its
own directory userspace/engine. It's compiled as a static library
libfalco_engine.a, and has its own CMakeLists.txt so it can be included
by other projects.

The engine's CMakeLists.txt has a add_subdirectory for the falco rules
directory, so including the engine also builds the rules.

The variables you need to set to use the engine's CMakeLists.txt are:

- CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX: the root directory below which everything is
  installed.
- FALCO_ETC_DIR: where to install the rules file.
- FALCO_SHARE_DIR: where to install lua code, relative to the
- install/package root.
- LUAJIT_INCLUDE: where to find header files for lua.
- FALCO_SINSP_LIBRARY: the library containing sinsp code. It will be
- considered a dependency of the engine.
- LPEG_LIB/LYAML_LIB/LIBYAML_LIB: locations for third-party libraries.
- FALCO_COMPONENT: if set, will be included as a part of any install()
  commands.

Instead of specifying /usr/share/falco in config_falco_*.h.in, use
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX and FALCO_SHARE_DIR.

The lua code for the engine has also moved, so the two lua source
directories (userspace/engine/lua and userspace/falco/lua) need to be
available separately via falco_common, so make it an argument to
falco_common::init.

As a part of making it easy to include in another project, also clean up
LPEG build/defs. Modify build-lpeg to add a PREFIX argument to allow for
object files/libraries being in an alternate location, and when building
lpeg, put object files in a build/ subdirectory.
