Define four wrapper functions for interface address locking,

Browse Source 
if_addr_rlock() and if_addr_runlock() for regular address lists, and
if_maddr_rlock() and if_maddr_runlock() for multicast address lists.

We will use these in various kernel modules to avoid encoding specific
type and locking strategy information into modules that currently use
IF_ADDR_LOCK() and IF_ADDR_UNLOCK() directly.
