IPv6 scoped addr display is not yet supported by ifconfig
and route. Now almost of IPv6 apps support it, so its support
in ifconfig and route is important to keep consisetncy, and
to avoid user confusion.

to do with netmasks.. we fed totally bogus data into the kernel
to do with default routes and it just believed us. this led to:
1/ kernel panics
2/ the default route refusing to be deleted or added

by comparing FreeBSD & OpenBSD sources/logs for the auditing process.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.

beyond compiling the definition of struct ifinfo!) Also fix up some
other #include messes while we're at it.
Opening the socket is the only privileged operation route requires.
Make a couple of static buffers bigger, and use strncpy() and snprintf() where
there's a chance of overflow.

This patch allows true interface routing to be controlled
from the command line..
you can now do:
route add default -interface ppp0
even if you have no clue what the address at the other end is..
this is part of a set of changes that allow true "unnumbered links"
such as netcom run between their sites..
In practice you should assign the address from one of your ethernet
interfaces to the local side of the P2P link so that IP doesn't
say that the packet comes from 255.255.255.255, but
there is no need whatsoever to assign an address of any kind
to the remote end of the link.. useful for frame relay links etc also.
