Since I originally authored this patch, I have come to believe that it
might be unneccessarily complicated.  It is unlikely that a lot of
different "handlers" will exist here;  the only things I can think of
are VPLS support and BIER-MPLS multicast replication.  I'm not saying
it's a bad idea, but, well, this was in the README that I gave to 6WIND
with this code:

MPLS layer:
- the "MPT_HANDLER" thing is probably overkill, it likely makes more sense to
  tie in the VPLS code more directly.
