* RFC 3542 isn't binary compatible with RFC 2292.
* RFC 2292 support is on by default but can be disabled.
* update ping6, telnet and traceroute6 to the new API.

- most of the kernel code will not care about the actual encoding of
scope zone IDs and won't touch "s6_addr16[1]" directly.
- similarly, most of the kernel code will not care about link-local
scoped addresses as a special case.
- scope boundary check will be stricter. For example, the current
*BSD code allows a packet with src=::1 and dst=(some global IPv6
address) to be sent outside of the node, if the application do:
s = socket(AF_INET6);
bind(s, "::1");
sendto(s, some_global_IPv6_addr);
This is clearly wrong, since ::1 is only meaningful within a single
node, but the current implementation of the *BSD kernel cannot
reject this attempt.
- and, while there, don't try to remove the ff02::/32 interface route
entry in in6_ifdetach() as it's already gone.
This also includes some level of support for the standard source
address selection algorithm defined in RFC3484, which will be
completed on in the future.

to check if interface exists, as (1) if_index has different meaning
(2) ifindex2ifnet could become NULL when interface gets destroyed,
since when we have introduced dynamically-created interfaces. from kame
now traffic on loopback interface will be presented to bpf as normal wire
format packet (without KAME scopeid in s6_addr16[1]).
fix KAME PR 250 (host mistakenly accepts packets to fe80::x%lo0).
sync with kame.
- use latest source address selection code - in6_src.c.
- correct frag header insertion.
- deep copy ip6 header portion in ip6_mloopback to avoid overwrite.
- do not bark when we forward packet to loopback.
- some cosmetics.
