Log Message:
Decouple inbound and outbound filters.  Now instead of using "active-filter"
and "pass-filter" and "inbound" and "outbound" qualifiers in the filter
expression, use new "active-filter-in", "active-filter-out", "pass-filter-in",
and "pass-filter-out" without these qualifiers.

This is necessary due to the horrible, awful way "inbound" and "outbound"
were specified for the filter programs when a packet was passed through them.
Basically, the "address" byte in the serial PPP header was overwritten with
a value to indicate the direction.  However, the "address" byte doesn't even
exist on PPP headers for all other PPP encaps!  So, this old method worked
only for serial encaps, and corrupted packets for all others (PPPoE, ATM, etc.)
