Introduce possibility to have an iterator per variable
This patch introduces the capability to use a different iterator per variable. The currently supported notation of variables in a filtering rule like <rule action='accept' direction='out'> <tcp srcipaddr='$A' srcportstart='$B'/> </rule> processes the two lists 'A' and 'B' in parallel. This means that A and B must have the same number of 'N' elements and that 'N' rules will be instantiated (assuming all tuples from A and B are unique). In this patch we now introduce the assignment of variables to different iterators. Therefore a rule like <rule action='accept' direction='out'> <tcp srcipaddr='$A[@1]' srcportstart='$B[@2]'/> </rule> will now create every combination of elements in A with elements in B since A has been assigned to an iterator with Id '1' and B has been assigned to an iterator with Id '2', thus processing their value independently. The first rule has an equivalent notation of <rule action='accept' direction='out'> <tcp srcipaddr='$A[@0]' srcportstart='$B[@0]'/> </rule>
