- 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.

decide whether to create an empty llinfo stricter so that a user
can manually change the link-layer address of an existing neighbor
cache.

malloc types into a structure, a pointer to which is passed around,
instead of an int constant. Allow the limit to be adjusted when the
malloc type is defined, or with a function call, as suggested by
Jonathan Stone.
behavior changes:
- two iocts used by ndp(8) are now obsolete (backward compat provided).
use sysctl path instead.
- lo0 does not get ::1 automatically. it will get ::1 when lo0 comes up.
INCOMPLETE state, send the first solicitation in nd6_output(), regardless
of the timer value.
revised comments about rate-limiting accordingly.
sync w/kame
if the cache entry is for outgoing router.
perform on-linkness check before default router (re-)seletion.
do not play with interface direct route on nd6_rtrequest.
sync a lot of cosmetic changes. sync with kame
autoconfigured host. bug was that, we will lose default route on
