ifa_ifwithdstaddr. For the sake of backwards compatibility, the new
arguments were added to new functions named ifa_ifwithnet_fib and
ifa_ifwithdstaddr_fib, while the old functions became wrappers around the
new ones that passed RT_ALL_FIBS for the fib argument. However, the
backwards compatibility is not desired for FreeBSD 11, because there are
numerous other incompatible changes to the ifnet(9) API. We therefore
decided to remove it from head but leave it in place for stable/9 and
stable/10. In addition, this commit adds the fib argument to
ifa_ifwithbroadaddr for consistency's sake.

3rd argument of ifa->ifa_rtrequest is now ``rt_addrinfo *'' instead of
``sockaddr *''. While here, un-document RTM_RESOLVE cmd argument for
ifa_rtrequest() that became a stub after separating L2 tables in r186119.

struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.
This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.
Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.

clock time to uptime because wall clock time may go backwards.
This is a change in the API which will impact SNMP agents who are using
ifi_epoch to set RFC2233's ifCounterDiscontinuityTime. None are know to
exist today. This will not impact applications that are using the
<index, epoch> tuple to verify interface uniqueness except that it
eliminates a race which could lead to a false assumption of uniqueness.
Because this is a behavior change, bump __FreeBSD_version.
