* Reworked the complete stack to allow more than one address per network
interface - this caused quite a number of changes.
* Network interfaces, and its addresses are now reference counted (not yet
complete, though, InterfaceAddresses need to hold references to their
interface as well).
* There are two known regressions of this commit that I will fix later:
- you cannot remove interfaces anymore
- IPv4 multicast was broken anyway, but now it's disabled, too.
* Moved a device_interfaces.cpp|h out of interfaces.cpp.
* The datalink layer chain is now instantiated per domain per interface,
not just per interface anymore.
* When a buffer reaches the network layer, it has no known interface yet, ie.
the ipv4|6|whatever modules need to set this manually.
* Added more debug output, and some new debugger commands, the control option
is now printed in clear text.
* Added hash_address() function to the address modules. Added "const" to
set_to_defaults() where needed.
* Fixed net_buffer's restore header functions offset use as reported by Atis.
* Improved buffer dump output, use the domain module to print the address if
available.
* Moved net_buffer::type into the union, as it's not needed by the upper layers
anymore.
* Moved IPv6 specific code from {add|remove}_default_route() to where it
belongs, but disabled it for the time being.
* Completely discarded useless ipv4_datagram module.
* Added ping6 to the build.

* The net_domain's lock is now a recursive lock.
* Fixed all route locking problems, of which there were numerous
({add|remove}_route(), and list_routes() did not lock at all). Added
lock assertions in functions that don't do the locking themselves.
* A route will now be removed from the list in remove_route(), not in
put_route_internal(). Before, a route could easily be removed twice, causing
remove_route() to release references it did not own. This fixes bug #2706.

started some work to properly handle device_removed() and setting interfaces down in general.

- remove all routes that use interfaces going down.
- when a device is going down, remove associated domain interfaces.
- interfaces weren't getting a properly referenced device interface, fixed.
- down call down_device_interface when deleting a interface, instead set it down and let the upcounts do its job.

* Changed ETHER_GET_LINK_STATE ethernet driver interface, added ETHER_SET_LINK_STATE_SEM.
* The device interface list now uses class DoublyLinkedList instead of struct list.
* Implemented SIOC[SG]IFMEDIA for setting (not supported by any device yet), and
retrieving the device media information.
* Fixed a locking bug in list_domain_interfaces().
* Added new stack function device_link_changed() that should be called in case the
link state (media) changed.
* The ethernet device module now spawns a thread and will periodically check the media
state of all ethernet devices that support this (if any).
* Minor cleanup.
