Add port forwardings to the performance tests. This will cause random
incoming packets to match the random port forwardings opends beforehand.

gettimeofday(3) is almost as expensive as the calls to libalias.
So the call frequency for this call is reduced by a factor of 1000 in
order to neglect it's influence.
Using NAT entries became more realistic: A communication of a random
length of up to 150 packets (10% outgoing, 90% incoming) is applied
for each entry.
Precision of the execution time is raised to see the trends better.

In order to compare upcoming changes for their effectivness, measure
performance by counting opertions and the runtime of each operation
over the time. Accumulate all tests in a single instance, so make it
complicated over the time. If you wait long enough, you will notice
the expiry of old flows.
