Currently whenever a new rule id is generated, it picks up the next
number bigger than previous id. So it would always be 1, 2, 3, etc.
When the rule with id 1 will be deleted and a new rule will be added,
it will have the id 4 and not id 1.
In theory this can be a problem if at some point a rule will be added
and removed ~0 times. Then no more rules can be added because there
are no more ids.

Change this such that when a new rule is added, search for an empty
rule id starting with value of 1 as value 0 is reserved.

Or you can simply use IDA/IDR/XArray which takes care of all this :)

Thanks for the great suggestion. From what I can see IDR would be a
great match for this. Then we can also change the function
'vcap_lookup_rule' to use IDR.
On the other side, we will not continuously add/remove entries from the
VCAP, so I was not sure if it is worth bringing the IDR(with the radix
tree) for this.
Anyway I am open for IDR suggestion.
But lets wait for the VCAP maintainer to see what he thinks.
