This patch cleans up the API between the net frontends (e1000,
virtio-net) and the net backends (tap and netmap).
We move the virtio-net header stripping/prepending to the
virtio-net code, where this functionality belongs.
In this way, the netbe_send() and netbe_recv() signatures
can have const struct iov * rather than struct iov *.

Add printf() wrapper to use CR/CRLF terminators depending on whether
stdio is mapped to a tty open in raw mode.
Try to use the wrapper everywhere.
For now we leave the custom DPRINTF/WPRINTF defined by device
models, but we may remove them in the future.

Some of the printf statements only use LF to get a newline. However, a CR character is also required for the serial console to print debug logs in a nice way.
Fix those code locations that only use LF, by adding a CR character.

If a VM is flooded with more ingress packets than the guest OS
can handle, the current virtio-net code will keep reading those
packets and drop most of them as no space is available in the
receive queue. This is an undesirable receive livelock, which
is a waste of CPU and memory resources and potentially opens to
DoS attacks.
With this change, virtio-net uses the new netbe_rx_disable()
function to disable ingress operation in the backend while the
guest is short on RX buffers. Once the guest makes more buffers
available to the RX virtqueue, ingress operation is enabled again
by calling netbe_rx_enable().

When transmitting a large TCP packet, the final transmit descriptor
includes the length of the protocol headers to be duplicated on each
segment. The device model was trusting the guest-supplied value
without validating it. A value of zero would result in the guest
being able to indirect a garbage pointer on the stack to overwrite
arbitrary memory in the bhyve process. A value that was non-zero but
too small for the requested parameters resulted in the device model
reading and writing values beyond the end of the on-stack buffer used
to hold the template header.
To fix, validate the supplied length and drop requests to transmit
packets that would overflow the header buffer. While here, initialize
the header pointer to NULL as a preventive measure so that any access
to an unallocated template header crashes they hypervisor
deterministically.
While here, only read the TCP sequence number if the packet being
split is a TCP packet. The e1000 logic supports a segmentation of UDP
frames, and while UDP segmentation requires this part of the header to
be valid (so there is no buffer overflow), only reading the field when
needed is cleaner.

Bhyve can currently emulate two virtual NICs, namely virtio-net and e1000,
and connect to the host network through two backends, namely tap and netmap.
However, there is no interface between virtual NIC functionalities and
backend functionalities. As a result, the backend code is duplicated between
the two virtual NIC implementations and also within the same virtual NIC.
Also, e1000 cannot currently use netmap as a backend.
This patch introduces a network backend API between virtio-net/e1000 and
tap/netmap, to improve code reuse and add missing functionalities.
Virtual NICs and backends can negotiate virtio-net features, such as checksum
offload and TSO. If the backend supports the features, it will propagate this
information to the guest, so that the latter can make use of them. Currently,
only netmap VALE ports support the features, but support should be added to
tap in the future.

The bhyve(8) exit status indicates how the VM was terminated:
0 rebooted
1 powered off
2 halted
3 triple fault
The problem is when we have wrappers around bhyve that parses the exit
error code and gets an exit(1) for an error but interprets it as "powered off".
So to mitigate this issue and makes it less error prone for third part
applications, I have added a new exit code 4 that is "exited due to an error".
For now the bhyve(8) exit status are:
0 rebooted
1 powered off
2 halted
3 triple fault
4 exited due to an error

There seems no hard limit on number of segments per packet in the chip,
and 20 appeared insufficient. Hope 64 will be enough, but if not -- add
check to report that and drop the packet instead of corrupting stack.
The code was successfully tested with FreeBSD, Linux, Solaris and Windows
guests. This interface is predictably slower (about 2x) then virtio-net,
but it is very helpful for guests not supporting virtio-net by default.
Thanks to Jeremiah Lott and Peter Grehan for doing original heavy lifting.
