Move ifconfig SFP status functionality into libifconfig

libifconfig_sfp.h provides an API in libifconfig for querying SFP module
properties, operational status, and vendor strings, as well as descriptions
of the various fields, string conversions, and other useful helpers for
implementing user interfaces.

SFP module status is obtained by reading registers via an I2C interface.
Descriptions of these registers and the values therein have been collected
in a Lua table which is used to generate all the boilerplace C headers and
source files for accessing these values, their names, and descriptions.
The generated code is fully commented and readable.

This is the first use of libifconfig in ifconfig itself. For now, the
scope remains very limited. Over time, more of ifconfig will be replaced
with libifconfig.

Some minor changes to the formatting of ifconfig output have been made:
- Module memory hex dumps are indented one extra space as a result of using
hexdump(3) instead of a bespoke hex dump function.
- Media descriptions have an added two-character short-name in parenthesis.
- QSFP modules were incorrectly displaying TX bias current as power. Now
TX channels display bias current, and this change has been made for both
SFP and QSFP modules for consistency.

A Lua binding for libifconfig including this functionality is implemented
but has not been included in this commit. The plan is for it to be
committed after dynamic module loading has been enabled in flua.

libifconfig: Add function to get bridge status

The new function operates similarly to ifconfig_lagg_get_lagg_status and
likewise is accompanied by a function to free the bridge status data structure.

I have included in this patch the relocation of some strings describing STP
parameters and the PV2ID macro from ifconfig into net/if_bridgevar.h as they
are useful for consumers of libifconfig.

Added the ability to:

* Get interface fib

* Get interface status
* Get nd6 info
* Get media status
* Get additional ifaddr info in a convenient struct
* Get vhids
* Get carp info
* Get lagg and laggport status
* Iterate over all interfaces and ifaddrs

And add more examples, too.

Note that this is a backwards-incompatible change. But that's ok, because it's
a private library.
