add SIOCGIFDATA ioctl

For interfaces that do not support SIOCGIFMEDIA (for which there are
quite a few) the only fallback is to query the interface for
if_data->ifi_link_state. While it's possible to get at if_data for an
interface via getifaddrs(3) or sysctl, both are heavy weight mechanisms.

SIOCGIFDATA is a simple ioctl to retrieve this fast with very little
resource use in comparison. This implementation mirrors that of other
similar ioctls in FreeBSD.

Add SIOCGIFDOWNREASON.

The ioctl(2) is intended to provide more details about the cause of
the down for the link.

Eventually we might define a comprehensive list of codes for the
situations. But interface also allows the driver to provide free-form
null-terminated ASCII string to provide arbitrary non-formalized
information. Sample implementation exists for mlx5(4), where the
string is fetched from firmware controlling the port.

Allow to specify PCP on packets not belonging to any VLAN.

According to 802.1Q-2014, VLAN tagged packets with VLAN id 0 should be
considered as untagged, and only PCP and DEI values from the VLAN tag
are meaningful. See for instance
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/connectedgrid/cg-switch-sw-master/software/configuration/guide/vlan0/b_vlan_0.html.

Make it possible to specify PCP value for outgoing packets on an
ethernet interface. When PCP is supplied, the tag is appended, VLAN
id set to 0, and PCP is filled by the supplied value. The code to do
VLAN tag encapsulation is refactored from the if_vlan.c and moved into
if_ethersubr.c.

Drivers might have issues with filtering VID 0 packets on
receive. This bug should be fixed for each driver.

sys: further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.

if: Add ioctls to get RSS key and hash type/function.

It will be needed by hn(4) to configure its RSS key and hash
type/function in the transparent VF mode in order to match VF's
RSS settings. The description of the transparent VF mode and
the RSS hash value issue are here:
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=322299
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=322485

These are generic enough to promise two independent IOCs instead
of abusing SIOCGDRVSPEC.

Setting RSS key and hash type/function is a different story,
which probably requires more discussion.

Comment about UDP_{IPV4,IPV6,IPV6_EX} were only in the patch
in the review request; these hash types are standardized now.

Persistently store NIC's hardware MAC address, and add a way to retrive it

The MAC address reported by `ifconfig ${nic} ether' does not always match
the address in the hardware, as reported by the driver during attach. In
particular, NICs which are components of a lagg(4) interface all report the
same MAC.

When attaching, the NIC driver passes the MAC address it read from the
hardware as an argument to ether_ifattach(). Keep a second copy of it, and
create ioctl(SIOCGHWADDR) to return it. Teach `ifconfig' to report it along
with the active MAC address.
