Finish r275196: do not dereference rtentry in if_output() routines.

The only piece of information that is required is rt_flags subset.

In particular, if_loop() requires RTF_REJECT and RTF_BLACKHOLE flags
to check if this particular mbuf needs to be dropped (and what
error should be returned).
Note that if_loop() will always return EHOSTUNREACH for "reject" routes
regardless of RTF_HOST flag existence. This is due to upcoming routing
changes where RTF_HOST value won't be available as lookup result.

All other functions require RTF_GATEWAY flag to check if they need
to return EHOSTUNREACH instead of EHOSTDOWN error.

There are 11 places where non-zero 'struct route' is passed to if_output().
For most of the callers (forwarding, bpf, arp) does not care about exact
error value. In fact, the only place where this result is propagated
is ip_output(). (ip6_output() passes NULL route to nd6_output_ifp()).

Given that, add 3 new 'struct route' flags (RT_REJECT, RT_BLACKHOLE and
RT_IS_GW) and inline function (rt_update_ro_flags()) to copy necessary
rte flags to ro_flags. Call this function in ip_output() after looking up/
verifying rte.

Fix if_loop so bpfwrite() can use it regardless of the state of
bd_hdrcmplt. As if_loop does not use link-level headers, its behavior
when used by bpfwrite() should be the same regardless of the state of

work like it) fail when writing to loopback interfaces.

Make checks for rt_mtu generic:

Some virtual if drivers has (ab)used ifa ifa_rtrequest hook to enforce
route MTU to be not bigger that interface MTU. While ifa_rtrequest hooking
might be an option in some situation, it is not feasible to do MTU checks
there: generic (or per-domain) routing code is perfectly capable of doing
this.

We currrently have 3 places where MTU is altered:

1) route addition.
In this case domain overrides radix _addroute callback (in[6]_addroute)
and all necessary checks/fixes are/can be done there.

2) route change (especially, GW change).
In this case, there are no explicit per-domain calls, but one can
override rte by setting ifa_rtrequest hook to domain handler
(inet6 does this).

3) ifconfig ifaceX mtu YYYY
In this case, we have no callbacks, but ip[6]_output performes runtime
checks and decreases rt_mtu if necessary.

Generally, the goals are to be able to handle all MTU changes in
control plane, not in runtime part, and properly deal with increased
interface MTU.

This commit changes the following:
* removes hooks setting MTU from drivers side
* adds proper per-doman MTU checks for case 1)
* adds generic MTU check for case 2)

* The latter is done by using new dom_ifmtu callback since
if_mtu denotes L3 interface MTU, e.g. maximum trasmitted _packet_ size.
However, IPv6 mtu might be different from if_mtu one (e.g. default 1280)
for some cases, so we need an abstract way to know maximum MTU size
for given interface and domain.
* moves rt_setmetrics() before MTU/ifa_rtrequest hooks since it copies
user-supplied data which must be checked.
* removes RT_LOCK_ASSERT() from other ifa_rtrequest hooks to be able to
use this functions on new non-inserted rte.

More changes will follow soon.

Remove AppleTalk support.

AppleTalk was a network transport protocol for Apple Macintosh devices
in 80s and then 90s. Starting with Mac OS X in 2000 the AppleTalk was
a legacy protocol and primary networking protocol is TCP/IP. The last
Mac OS X release to support AppleTalk happened in 2009. The same year
routing equipment vendors (namely Cisco) end their support.

Thus, AppleTalk won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.

Remove IPX support.

IPX was a network transport protocol in Novell's NetWare network operating
system from late 80s and then 90s. The NetWare itself switched to TCP/IP
as default transport in 1998. Later, in this century the Novell Open
Enterprise Server became successor of Novell NetWare. The last release
that claimed to still support IPX was OES 2 in 2007. Routing equipment
vendors (e.g. Cisco) discontinued support for IPX in 2011.

Thus, IPX won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.
