* Add link-state change notifications by subscribing to ifnet_link_event.
In the Linux netlink model, link state is reported in 2 places: first is
the IFLA_OPERSTATE, which stores state per RFC2863.
The second is an IFF_LOWER_UP interface flag. As many applications rely
on the latter, reserve 1 bit from if_flags, named as IFF_NETLINK_1.
This flag is mapped to IFF_LOWER_UP in the netlink headers. This is done
to avoid making applications think this flag is actually
supported / presented in non-netlink outputs.
* Add flag change notifications, by hooking into rt_ifmsg().
In the netlink model, notification should include the bitmask for the
change flags. Update rt_ifmsg() to include such bitmask.

Store user-supplied source protocol in the nexthops and nexthop groups.

Netlinks is a communication protocol currently used in Linux kernel to modify,
read and subscribe for nearly all networking state. Interfaces, addresses, routes,
firewall, fibs, vnets, etc are controlled via netlink.
It is async, TLV-based protocol, providing 1-1 and 1-many communications.
The current implementation supports the subset of NETLINK_ROUTE
family. To be more specific, the following is supported:
* Dumps:
- routes
- nexthops / nexthop groups
- interfaces
- interface addresses
- neighbors (arp/ndp)
* Notifications:
- interface arrival/departure
- interface address arrival/departure
- route addition/deletion
* Modifications:
- adding/deleting routes
- adding/deleting nexthops/nexthops groups
- adding/deleting neghbors
- adding/deleting interfaces (basic support only)
* Rtsock interaction
- route events are bridged both ways
The implementation also supports the NETLINK_GENERIC family framework.
Implementation notes:
Netlink is implemented via loadable/unloadable kernel module,
not touching many kernel parts.
Each netlink socket uses dedicated taskqueue to support async operations
that can sleep, such as interface creation. All message processing is
performed within these taskqueues.
Compatibility:
Most of the Netlink data models specified above maps to FreeBSD concepts
nicely. Unmodified ip(8) binary correctly works with
interfaces, addresses, routes, nexthops and nexthop groups. Some
software such as net/bird require header-only modifications to compile
and work with FreeBSD netlink.

Routing daemons such as bird need to know if they install certain route
so they can clean it up on startup, as a form of achieving consistent
state during the crash recovery.
Currently they use combination of routing flags (RTF_PROTO1) to detect
these routes when interacting via route(4) rtsock protocol.
Netlink protocol has a special "rtm_protocol" field that is filled and
checked by the route originator. To prepare for the upcoming netlink
introduction, add ability to record origing to both nexthops and
nexthop groups via <nhop|nhgrp>_<get|set>_origin() KPI. The actual
calls will be used in the followup commits.

This change adds public KPI to work with routes using pre-created
nexthops, instead of using data from addrinfo structures. These
functions will be later used for adding/deleting kernel-originated
routes and upcoming netlink protocol.
As a part of providing this KPI, low-level route addition code has been
reworked to provide more control over route creation or change.
Specifically, a number of operation flags
(RTM_F_<CREATE|EXCL|REPLACE|APPEND>) have been added, defining the
desired behaviour the the route already exists (or not exists). This
change required some changes in the multipath addition code, resulting
in moving this code to route_ctl.c, rendering mpath_ctl.c empty.

This and the follow-up routing-related changes target to remove or
reduce `struct rt_addrinfo` usage and use recently-landed nhop(9)
KPI instead.
Traditionally `rt_addrinfo` structure has been used to propagate all necessary
information between the protocol/rtsock and a routing layer. Many
functions inside routing subsystem uses it internally. However, using
this structure became somewhat complicated, as there are too many ways
of specifying a single state and verifying data consistency is hard.
For example, arerouting flgs consistent with mask/gateway sockaddr pointers?
Is mask really a host mask? Are sockaddr "valid" (e.g. properly zeroed, masked,
have proper length)? Are they mutable? Is the suggested interface specified
by the interface index embedded into the sockadd_dl gateway, or passed
as RTAX_IFP parameter, or directly provided by rti_ifp or it needs to
be derived from the ifa?
These (and other similar) questions have to be considered every time when
a function has `rt_addrinfo` pointer as an argument.
The new approach is to bring more control back to the protocols and
construct the desired routing objects themselves - in the end, it's the
protocol/subsystem who knows the desired outcome.
This specific diff changes the following:
* add explicit basic low-level radix operations:
add_route() (renamed from add_route_nhop())
delete_route() (factored from change_route_nhop())
change_route() (renamed from change_route_nhop)
* remove "info" parameter from change_route_conditional() as a part
of reducing rt_addrinfo usage in the internal KPIs
* add lookup_prefix_rt() wrapper for doing re-lookups after
RIB lock/unlock

Currently, rt_addrinfo(info) serves as a main "transport" moving
state between various functions inside the routing subsystem.
As all of the fields are filled in directly by the customers, it
is problematic to maintain consistency, resulting in repeated checks
inside many functions. Additionally, there are multiple ways of
specifying the same value (RTAX_IFP vs rti_ifp / rti_ifa) and so on.
With the upcoming nhop(9) kpi it is possible to store all of the
required state in the nexthops in the consistent fashion, reducing the
need to use "info" in the KPI calls.
Finally, rt_addrinfo structure format was derived from the rtsock wire
format, which is different from other kernel routing users or netlink.
This cleanup simplifies upcoming nhop(9) kpi and netlink introduction.

Nexthops in the nexthop groups needs to be deterministically sorted
by some their property to simplify reporting cost when changing
large nexthop groups.
Fix reporting by actually sorting next hops by their indices (`wn_cmp_idx()`).
As calc_min_mpath_slots_fast() has an assumption that next hops are sorted
using their relative weight in the nexthop groups, it needs to be
addressed as well. The latter sorting is required to quickly determine the
layout of the next hops in the actual forwarding group. For example,
what's the best way to split the traffic between nhops with weights
19,31 and 47 if the maximum nexthop group width is 64?
It is worth mentioning that such sorting is only required during nexthop
group creation and is not used elsewhere. Lastly, normally all nexthop
are of the same weight. With that in mind, (a) use spare 32 bytes inside
`struct weightened_nexthop` to avoid another memory allocation and
(b) use insertion sort to sort the nexthop weights.
