Hi OFP dev,

I'm implementing the support for Conntrack CT_LABEL and CT_MARK match and 
action. So far, I've managed to get the match portion of the support to work, 
but I am having trouble finding the right headers and structure format for the 
action portion.

The action that I would like to support is set_field used in the conntrack 
context.
e.g.
action=ct(commit, exec(set_field:1->ct_mark))

I'm adding my changes to ConntrackCodec.java. In the case of the NAT action, it 
has an explicit subtype (NXAST_NAT_SUBTYPE = 36), but I don't see an equivalent 
for set_field of ct_label/ct_mark.

Should I be using the SET_FIELD_CODE = 25 as the type? And if so, can you point 
me to how the rest of the structure is defined?
I would appreciate some guidance on what kind of structure (headers, format) I 
need to send down to the OVS node.

Also, does the "set_field" have to be wrapped by an "exec" in this case? Again, 
I haven't come across an "exec" header type in the ovs code.

Thanks,
Bertrand
