b1b9dcae46 Remove net.link.ether.inet.useloopback sysctl tunable. It was always on by
default from the very beginning. It was placed in wrong namespace
net.link.ether, originally it had been at another wrong namespace. It was
incorrectly documented at incorrect manual page arp(8). Since new-ARP commit,
the tunable have been consulted only on route addition, and ignored on route
deletion. Behaviour of a system with tunable turned off is not fully correct,
and has no advantages comparing to normal behavior.

478df1d534 Provide a sysctl switch that allows to install ARP entries
with multicast bit set. FreeBSD refuses to install such
entries since 9.0, and this broke installations running
Microsoft NLB, which are violating standards.

34c96b563e Improve the documentation of "proxyall" knob, somewhat: we do not
proxy for hosts that are reachable through the same interface the
request came in from.  This feature is mainly for hosts reachable
through some P2P link, e.g. the gif(4) tunnel.
