Brooks Davis fc74a9f93a Stop embedding struct ifnet at the top of driver softcs. Instead the
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.
