Finish what was started a few years ago and harmonize IPv6 and IPv4
kernel names. We are down to very few places now that it is feasible
to do the change for everything remaining with causing too much disturbance.
Remove "aliases" for IPv6 names which confusingly could indicate
that we are talking about a different data structure or field or
have two fields, one for each address family.
Try to follow common conventions used in FreeBSD.
* Rename sin6p to sin6 as that is how it is spelt in most places.
* Remove "aliases" (#defines) for:
- in6pcb which really is an inpcb and nothing separate
- sotoin6pcb which is sotoinpcb (as per above)
- in6p_sp which is inp_sp
- in6p_flowinfo which is inp_flow
* Try to use ia6 for in6_addr rather than in6p.
* With all these gone also rename the in6p variables to inp as
that is what we call it in most of the network stack including
parts of netinet6.
The reasons behind this cleanup are that we try to further
unify netinet and netinet6 code where possible and that people
will less ignore one or the other protocol family when doing
code changes as they may not have spotted places due to different
names for the same thing.
No functional changes.

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.
The tools using to generate the sources has been updated and produces
different whitespaces. Commit this seperately to avoid intermixing
these with real code changes.

This helps clients using a userland stack to support multihoming if
they are not behind a NAT.

This is currently only a code change without any functional
change. But this allows to set the remote encapsulation port
in a more detailed way, which will be provided in a follow-up
commit.

adds the new I-Data (Interleaved Data) message. This allows a user
to be able to have complete freedom from Head Of Line blocking that
was previously there due to the in-ability to send multiple large
messages without the TSN's being in sequence. The code as been
tested with Michaels various packet drill scripts as well as
inter-networking between the IETF's location in Argentina and Germany.
This routine checks that there are no locks held for an inp,
without having any lock on the inp. This breaks if the inp
goes away when it is called. This happens on stress tests
on a RPi B+.

* When processing a cookie, use the number of
streams announced in the INIT-ACK.
* When sending an INIT-ACK for an existing
association, use the value from the association,
not from the end-point.

o Introduce a notion of "not ready" mbufs in socket buffers. These
mbufs are now being populated by some I/O in background and are
referenced outside. This forces following implications:
- An mbuf which is "not ready" can't be taken out of the buffer.
- An mbuf that is behind a "not ready" in the queue neither.
- If sockbet buffer is flushed, then "not ready" mbufs shouln't be
freed.
o In struct sockbuf the sb_cc field is split into sb_ccc and sb_acc.
The sb_ccc stands for ""claimed character count", or "committed
character count". And the sb_acc is "available character count".
Consumers of socket buffer API shouldn't already access them directly,
but use sbused() and sbavail() respectively.
o Not ready mbufs are marked with M_NOTREADY, and ready but blocked ones
with M_BLOCKED.
o New field sb_fnrdy points to the first not ready mbuf, to avoid linear
search.
o New function sbready() is provided to activate certain amount of mbufs
in a socket buffer.
A special note on SCTP:
SCTP has its own sockbufs. Unfortunately, FreeBSD stack doesn't yet
allow protocol specific sockbufs. Thus, SCTP does some hacks to make
itself compatible with FreeBSD: it manages sockbufs on its own, but keeps
sb_cc updated to inform the stack of amount of data in them. The new
notion of "not ready" data isn't supported by SCTP. Instead, only a
mechanical substitute is done: s/sb_cc/sb_ccc/.
A proper solution would be to take away struct sockbuf from struct
socket and allow protocols to implement their own socket buffers, like
SCTP already does. This was discussed with rrs@.

A simialar pattern will be used for controlling SCTP extensions in
upcoming commits.
* Decouple the path supervision using a separate HB timer per path.
* Add support for potentially failed state.
* Bring back RTO.min to 1 second.
* Accept packets on IP-addresses already announced via an ASCONF
* While there: do some cleanups.

1) They don't use the giant "MAX_CPU" define and instead
are allocated dynamically based on mp_ncpus
2) Will zero with the netstat -z -s -p sctp
3) Will be properly handled by both the sctp_init and finish
(the multi-net stuff was incorrectly bzero'ing in sctp_init
the wrong size.. the bzero is now moved to the right places).
And of course the free is put in at the very end.

threads. These serve as input threads and are queued
packets based on the V-tag number. This is similar to
what a modern card can do with queue's for TCP... but
alas modern cards know nothing about SCTP.

2) Add separate max-bursts for retransmit and hb. These
are set to sysctlable values but not settable via the
socket api. This makes sure we don't blast out HB's or
fast-retransmits.
3) Determine on the first data transmission on a net if
its local-lan (by being under or over a RTT). This
can later be used to think about different algorithms
based on locallan vs big-i (experimental)
4) The cwnd should NOT be allowed to grow when an ECNEcho
is seen (TCP has this same bug). We fix this in SCTP
so an ECNe being seen prevents an advance of cwnd.
5) CWR's should not be sent multiple times to the
same network, instead just updating the TSN being
transmitted if needed.
