This mirrors the basic IPv4 implementation - IPv6 packets under RSS
now are checked for a correct RSS hash and if one isn't provided,
it's done in software.
This only handles the initial receive - it doesn't yet handle
reinjecting / rehashing packets after being decapsulated from
various tunneling setups. That'll come in some follow-up work.
For non-RSS users, this is almost a giant no-op.
It does change a couple of ipv6 methods to use const mbuf * instead of
mbuf * but it doesn't have any functional changes.
So, the following now occurs:
* If the NIC doesn't do any RSS hashing, it's all done in software.
Single-queue, non-RSS NICs will now have the RX path distributed
into multiple receive netisr queues.
* If the NIC provides the wrong hash (eg only IPv6 hash when we needed
an IPv6 TCP hash, or IPv6 UDP hash when we expected IPv6 hash)
then the hash is recalculated.
* .. if the hash is recalculated, it'll end up being injected into
the correct netisr queue for v6 processing.

This isn't yet linked into the receive/transmit paths anywhere just yet.

bits.
The motivation here is to eventually teach netisr and potentially
other networking subsystems a bit more about how RSS work queues / buckets
are configured so things have a hope of auto-configuring in the future.
* net/rss_config.[ch] takes care of the generic bits for doing
configuration, hash function selection, etc;
* topelitz.[ch] is now in net/ rather than netinet/;
* (and would be in libkern if it didn't directly include RSS_KEYSIZE;
that's a later thing to fix up.)
* netinet/in_rss.[ch] now just contains the IPv4 specific methods;
* and netinet/in6_rss.[ch] now just contains the IPv6 specific methods.
This should have no functional impact on anyone currently using
the RSS support.
