Enable IPsec
============
Default IPsec transformation with ESP encapsulation plus Transport mode
could be enabled by simply setting:

pgset "flag IPSEC"
pgset "flows 1"

To avoid breaking existing testbed scripts for using AH type and tunnel mode,
user could use "pgset spi SPI_VALUE" to specify which formal of transformation
to employ.
