45c203fce2 Remove AppleTalk support.
AppleTalk was a network transport protocol for Apple Macintosh devices
in 80s and then 90s. Starting with Mac OS X in 2000 the AppleTalk was
a legacy protocol and primary networking protocol is TCP/IP. The last
Mac OS X release to support AppleTalk happened in 2009. The same year
routing equipment vendors (namely Cisco) end their support.

Thus, AppleTalk won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.

2c284d9395 Remove IPX support.
IPX was a network transport protocol in Novell's NetWare network operating
system from late 80s and then 90s. The NetWare itself switched to TCP/IP
as default transport in 1998. Later, in this century the Novell Open
Enterprise Server became successor of Novell NetWare. The last release
that claimed to still support IPX was OES 2 in 2007. Routing equipment
vendors (e.g. Cisco) discontinued support for IPX in 2011.

Thus, IPX won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.

72369c34ac Parse "getifname" using the standard parse string type.
Fixed an off-by-one error when dealing with interface name
(if_xname is NUL-terminated).

Don't waste time making a copy of if_xname in constructor.

3c6b084e96 Finish driving a stake through the heart of netns and the associated
ifdefs scattered around the place - its dead Jim!

The SMB stuff had stolen AF_NS, make it official.

15ba31b9ad Updates to the ng_iface(8) netgraph node type:
- Make iface nodes removable on shutdown since FreeBSD now supports
    removable interfaces
  - Simplify supporting new protocols using family_enqueue(); add a
    few new ones including IPv6
  - Add support for configurable interface mode using new
    NGM_IFACE_POINT2POINT and NGM_IFACE_BROADCAST control messages
  - Remove NGM_IFACE_GET_IFADDRS control message; it just duplicates
    the functionality of SIOCGIFCONF
