computation node MUST check the application specific participation in
flex-algo and participation advertisement is application specific. SR
and IP are different applications from flex-algo perspective.
draft-ietf-lsr-flex-algo-12, section 10.2:
Application-specific advertisement for Flex-Algorithm participation
MUST be defined for each application
