will remain in the disabled state until another link event happens in the
future (if at all). Add a timer to periodically check the interface state and
recover.

restored when its removed from the bridge.
At the moment we only clear IFCAP_TXCSUM. Since a locally generated packet on
the bridge may be sent out any one or more interfaces it cant be assumed that
every card does hardware csums. Most bridges don't generate a lot of traffic
themselves so turning off offloading won't hurt, bridged packets are
unaffected.

span ports when they disappear. The span port does not have a pointer to the
softc so revert r1.31 and bring back the softc linked-list.
MFC after: 2 weeks
softc lists and associated mutex are now unused so these have been removed.
Calling if_clone_detach() will now destroy all the cloned interfaces for the
driver and in most cases is all thats needed to unload.

- move the function pointer definitions to if_bridgevar.h
- move most of the logic to the new BRIDGE_INPUT and BRIDGE_OUTPUT macros
- remove unneeded functions from if_bridgevar.h and sort a little.
hooks for each outgoing interface but also run pfil hooks _N times_ on the
bridge interface. This is changed so pfil hooks are run once for the bridge
interface (bridge0) and then only on the outgoing interfaces in the broadcast
loop.
- Simplify bridge_enqueue() by moving bridge_pfil() to the callers.
- Check (inet6_pfil_hook.ph_busy_count >= 0), it may be possible to have a
packet filter hooked for only ipv6 but we were only checking if ipv4 hooks
were busy.
- Minor optimisation for null mbuf check after bridge_pfil(), move it into the
if-block as it couldnt possibly be null outside.

struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.
This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.
Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.
