90c4b74cbe Fix special status reporting. Prior to the reorg there was
special-purpose code to display status for an interface for
state that was not address-oriented.  This status reporting
was merged in to the address-oriented status reporting but
did not work for link address reporting (as discovered with
fwip interfaces).  Correct this mis-merge and eliminate the
bogus kludge that was used for link-level address reporting.

o add an af_other_status method for an address family for
  reporting status of things like media, vlan, etc.
o call the af_other_status methods after reporting address
  status for an interface
o special-case link address status; when reporting all
  status for an interface invoke it specially prior to
  reporting af_other_status methods (since it requires the
  sockaddr_dl that is passed in to status separately from
  the rtmsg address state)
o correct the calling convention for link address status;
  don't cast types, construct the proper parameter

This fixes ifconfig on fwip interfaces.

5faf8dcb55 Overhaul to cleanup some of the tangled logic that's grown over the years.
o break per-address family support out into separate files
o modularize per-address family and functional operations using
  a registration mechanism; this permits configuration according
  to which files you include (but beware that order of the files
  is important to insure backwards compatibility)
o many cleanups to eliminate incestuous behaviour, global variables,
  and poor coding practices (still much more to fix)

The original motivation of this work was to support dynamic addition
of functionality based on the interface so we can eliminate the various
little control programs and so that vendors can distribute ifconfig
plugins that support their in-kernel code.  That work is still to be
completed.

o Update 802.11 support for all the new net80211 functionality; some
  of these operations (e.g. list *) may be better suited in a different
  program

97490f4b3c Rename ifconfig's "mac" argument to "maclabel" to prevent confusion
regarding 802.1 MAC and Mandatory Access Control (MAC).  Some
potential for confusion remains further in other areas of the
system regarding Message Authentication Codes (MAC).

2d58d642d2 Teach ifconfig(8) how to print and set the MAC labels on network
interfaces using the 'mac' argument.  Without MAC support in the
kernel, this does not change the behavior of ifconfig.
