[router] IPv6 support and refactoring.
This change adds support for IPv6 while refactoring most of the original plugin code in the following ways. - Adhere to vpp style guidelines. - Split the netlink, node, and tap processing into separate files named with a "tap_inject" prefix which more accurately represents the functionality. - Implement our own tap management and rx/tx. This is to reduce the overhead of passing packets in and out of vnet tap devices, in favor of directly reading/writing from the tap. - Change how nodes work. Now we have neighbor, rx, and tx nodes. The neighbor node sends ARP replies and ICMP6 neighbor advertisements to the arp-input and icmp6-neighbor-solicitation nodes, respectively, before also injecting the packet to the host, making it possible for both vpp and the host network stack to resolve the next hop. The tx node injects packets into the host by writing to the tap. The rx node reads packets from the tap and sends them on its associated data plane interface. - Simplify the CLI. Instead of creating taps specifically for a given interface we create a tap for all of the Ethernet interfaces with the "enable tap-inject" CLI command. The interfaces are named with a "vpp" prefix, i.e. "vpp0". Also add a "disable tap-inject" option. - Provide ability to enable at configuration time with the tap-inject { enable } stanza.
