/**
 * @brief bier_fmask : The BIER fmask
 *
 * The BIER fmask contains the bitString that is applied to packets that
 * egress towards the next-hop. As such the fmask is part of the rewrite
 * (adj) for that next-hop. It it thus an extension of the next-hop and in
 * no way associated with the bit-position(s) that are reachable through it.
 * Fmasks are thus shared by bit-positions that egress throught the same
 * nh (BFR-NBR).
 * Deag fmasks are also shread in the event that a router has local
 * bit-positions. This is necessary to prevent the router recieving two copies
 * of each packet. Consequently it also means that they share the same
 * disposition data for the global data.
