increase throughput and reduce unordered packets as well as reduce SACK.

# ifconfig lagg0 create
# ifconfig lagg0 laggproto roundrobin laggport bge0 laggport bge1 \

This is not properly respecting WITHOUT or ARCH dependencies in target/.
Doing so requires a massive effort to rework targets/ to do so. A
better approach will be to either include the SUBDIR Makefiles directly
and map to DIRDEPS or just dynamically lookup the SUBDIR. These lose
the benefit of having a userland/lib, userland/libexec, etc, though and
results in a massive package. The current implementation of targets/ is
very unmaintainable.
Currently rescue/rescue and sys/modules are still not connected.

* remove regdomain.[ch] - it's now part of lib80211.
* convert ifieee80211.c to use the ioctl routines in lib80211 and
implement the "error? exit" wrapper behaviour the callers expect.
Right now net80211 is configured as type IBSS but then treats it
as mediatype ADHOC. This doesn't change that; it just correctly handles
being given a mediatype of IBSS.
Add net.link.lagg.lacp.default_strict_mode which defines

based on the address family. This should help to recognize interfaces with
multiple AF (e.g. ipv4 and ipv6) with many aliases or additional addresses. The
order of addresses inside a single group is strictly preserved.
Improve the scope_id output for AF_INET6 families, as the
current approach uses hexadecimal string that is basically the ID of an
interface, whilst this information is already depicted by getnameinfo(3) call.
Therefore, now ifconfig just prints the scope of address as it is defined in
2.4 of RFC 2373.

Split it into two modules: if_gre(4) for GRE encapsulation and
if_me(4) for minimal encapsulation within IP.
gre(4) changes:
* convert to if_transmit;
* rework locking: protect access to softc with rmlock,
protect from concurrent ioctls with sx lock;
* correct interface accounting for outgoing datagramms (count only payload size);
* implement generic support for using IPv6 as delivery header;
* make implementation conform to the RFC 2784 and partially to RFC 2890;
* add support for GRE checksums - calculate for outgoing datagramms and check
for inconming datagramms;
* add support for sending sequence number in GRE header;
* remove support of cached routes. This fixes problem, when gre(4) doesn't
work at system startup. But this also removes support for having tunnels with
the same addresses for inner and outer header.
* deprecate support for various GREXXX ioctls, that doesn't used in FreeBSD.
Use our standard ioctls for tunnels.
me(4):
* implementation conform to RFC 2004;
* use if_transmit;
* use the same locking model as gre(4);

vxlan creates a virtual LAN by encapsulating the inner Ethernet frame in
a UDP packet. This implementation is based on RFC7348.
Currently, the IPv6 support is not fully compliant with the specification:
we should be able to receive UPDv6 packets with a zero checksum, but we
need to support RFC6935 first. Patches for this should come soon.
Encapsulation protocols such as vxlan emphasize the need for the FreeBSD
network stack to support batching, GRO, and GSO. Each frame has to make
two trips through the network stack, and each frame will be at most MTU
sized. Performance suffers accordingly.
Some latest generation NICs have begun to support vxlan HW offloads that
we should also take advantage of. VIMAGE support should also be added soon.
