flow: delayed deletion of flow cache entries

Speed up lookups by freeing flow cache entries later. After
virtualizing flow cache entry operations, the flow cache may now
end up calling policy or bundle destructor which can be slowish.

As gc_list is more effective with double linked list, the flow cache
is converted to use common hlist and list macroes where appropriate.
