Massimiliano Pinto 17e33d2ef9 Added command type to:
gwbuf struct
dcb struct

This int field will hold the last command executed or sent to backend.

It will be 0 for most cases, setting it with a different value could help route differently the data from backend to client or some custom error messages.

/**
* @file buffer.h Definitions relating the gateway buffer manipulation facilities.
*
* These are used to store all data coming in form or going out to the client and the
* backend structures.
*
* The buffers are designed to be used in linked lists and such that they may be passed
* from one side of the gateway to another without the need to copy data. It may be the case
* that not all of the data in the buffer is valid, to this end a start and end pointer are
* included that point to the first valid byte in the buffer and the first byte after the
* last valid byte. This allows data to be consumed from either end of the buffer whilst
* still allowing for the copy free semantics of the buffering system.
