[Click] add routing enteries from an external file to Click configuration file

[Eddie Kohler]

Hi Ahmed, Sandeep,

Another way is to use Script elements.  For example, create a file
like this; say it is in /tmp/myroutes

add 1.0.0.0/8 1.0.0.1 0
add 2.0.0.0/8 2.0.0.1 1
...

Then, in your configuration:

.... -> my_routing_table :: RadixIPLookup -> ....
Script(write my_routing_table.ctrl $(cat /tmp/myroutes))
