Distribute all but the most fundamental malloc types. This time I also
remembered the trick to making things static: Put "static" in front of
them.

Introduce the SIOC[SG]IFGENERIC hooks that can be used to pass an
arbritrary ioctl subcommand into an interface driver. Surprisingly
enough, there was no provision for this already present (except of the
option of abusing SIOC[SG]IFMEDIA for this).
The idea is that an interface driver can establish ioctl subcommands
of its own that can't be meaningfully interpreted by the upper layer
interface ioctl function. Something like this is required to
implement a clean solution of passing down things like CHAP secrets or
PPP options to the /sys/net/if_sppp* files. (Yes, my CHAP is now
finally working with it, but i gotta update my kernel to the new
callout interface before being able to commit _that_.)

Also add the code in appletalk to make use of this new feature.
Thsi fixes one of the longest standing bugs in appletalk.

Protocols that do not supply this function (e.g. IP) should not be affected.
2.3.0 -> 2.3.1 changes, but I seem to recall that there are certain
"issues" with 2.3.1 (I'm not sure if it's just pppd or the whole lot, I
am not quite that far). The present pppd seems to work with it just fine
for the time being.
Among the changes are that zlib (aka LZ77 aka deflate aka gzip) compression
is implemented as well as the original compress(1) LZW style.
socket addresses in mbufs. (Socket buffers are the one exception.) A number
of kernel APIs needed to get fixed in order to make this happen. Also,
fix three protocol families which kept PCBs in mbufs to not malloc them
instead. Delete some old compatibility cruft while we're at it, and add
some new routines in the in_cksum family.

this is needed for packets to get processed by a cisco router,
but doesn't matter if a packet is just forwarded.

2/ actually fixes the problem while vetting bad user input.
note: I have already fixed route(1) so the problem shouldn't occur.

We need to accept at least one sockaddr with zero length, in order
to be able to set the default route.
Suggested by: Phone conversation with Julian (sleep well!)
Route(1) has a bug that sends a bad message to the kernel. The kernel
trusts it and crashes. Add some sanity checks so that
we don't trust the user quite as much any more.

1: cvs and cvsup don't really support vendor branches other than 1.1.1.x,
this is on 1.1.2.x and causing problems in cvsup 'checkout mode', just the
same as cvs has problems interpreting dates. (cvs has "1.1.1" hard coded)
2: cvs 'rm'ing them takes them off the vendor branch and should hide the
above problems.
3: it's just clutter until the merge is done.
4: if the problem isn't sufficiently resolved by taking these off the
vendor branch, the files will have to be nuked and re-imported.

davidg spotted this in usr.sbin/ppp/slcompress.c
a while ago, but I believe gave the wrong reasons -
it's too easy to reproduce ! The only scenario that
I've been able to reproduce the problem under is when
m_len is *exactly* 40 ! So go figure !
