Some of the collisions that are occuring are due to flowtable lookups
that succeed but have an invalid lle - typically because the L2 adjacency
lookup hasn't completed. This would lead to a follow-up insert which
would then fail (ie, collision) and the code would fall through to doing
a slow-path L2/L3 lookup in the netinet/netinet6 code.
This patch simply aborts storing a new flowtable entry if the lle isn't
yet valid.
Whilst I'm here, add a new pcpu counter for the item so the number of
failures can be tracked separately from generic "collisions."

- ip_output() and ip_output6() simply call flowtable_lookup(),
passing mbuf and address family. That's the only code under
#ifdef FLOWTABLE in the protocols code now.
o Revamp statistics gathering and export.
- Remove hand made pcpu stats, and utilize counter(9).
- Snapshot of statistics is available via 'netstat -rs'.
- All sysctls are moved into net.flowtable namespace, since
spreading them over net.inet isn't correct.
o Properly separate at compile time INET and INET6 parts.
o General cleanup.
- Remove chain of multiple flowtables. We simply have one for
IPv4 and one for IPv6.
- Flowtables are allocated in flowtable.c, symbols are static.
- With proper argument to SYSINIT() we no longer need flowtable_ready.
- Hash salt doesn't need to be per-VNET.
- Removed rudimentary debugging, which use quite useless in dtrace era.
The runtime behavior of flowtable shouldn't be changed by this commit.
