Update route MTU in case of ifnet MTU change.
Add new RTF_FIXEDMTU to track explicitly specified MTU.
Old behavior:
ifconfig em0 mtu 1500->9000 -> all routes traversing em0 do not change MTU.
User has to manually update all routes.
ifconfig em0 mtu 9000->1500 -> all routes traversing em0 do not change MTU.
However, if ip[6]_output finds route with rt_mtu > interface mtu, rt_mtu
gets updated.
New behavior:
ifconfig em0 mtu 1500->9000 -> all interface routes in all fibs gets updated
with new MTU unless RTF_FIXEDMTU flag set on them.
ifconfig em0 mtu 9000->1500 -> all routes in all fibs gets updated with new
MTU unless RTF_FIXEDMTU flag set on them AND rt_mtu is less than ifp mtu.
route add ... -mtu XXX automatically sets RTF_FIXEDMTU flag.
route change .. -mtu 0 automatically removes RTF_FIXEDMTU flag.

Initially in_matrote() in_clsroute() in their current state was introduced by
r4105 20 years ago. Instead of deleting inactive routes immediately, we kept them
in route table, setting RTPRF_OURS flag and some expire time. After that, either
GC came or RTPRF_OURS got removed on first-packet. It was a good solution
in that days (and probably another decade after that) to keep TCP metrics.
However, after moving metrics to TCP hostcache in r122922, most of in_rmx
functionality became unused. It might had been used for flushing icmp-originated
routes before rte mutexes/refcounting, but I'm not sure about that.
So it looks like this is nearly impossible to make GC do its work nowadays:
in_rtkill() ignores non-RTPRF_OURS routes.
route can only become RTPRF_OURS after dropping last reference via rtfree()
which calls in_clsroute(), which, it turn, ignores UP and non-RTF_DYNAMIC routes.
Dynamic routes can still be installed via received redirect, but they
have default lifetime (no specific rt_expire) and no one has another trie walker
to call RTFREE() on them.
So, the changelist:
* remove custom rnh_match / rnh_close matching function.
* remove all GC functions
* partially revert r256695 (proto3 is no more used inside kernel,
it is not possible to use rt_expire from user point of view, proto3 support
is not complete)
* Finish r241884 (similar to this commit) and remove remaining IPv6 parts

Since radix has been ignoring sa_family in passed sockaddrs,
no one ever has bothered filling valid sa_family in netmasks.
Additionally, radix adjusts sa_len field in every netmask not to
compare zero bytes at all.
This leads us to rt_mask with sa_family of AF_UNSPEC (-1) and
arbitrary sa_len field (0 for default route, for example).
However, rtsock have been passing that rt_mask intact for ages,
requiring all rtsock consumers to make ther own local hacks.
We even have unfixed on in base:
do `route -n monitor` in one window and issue `route -n get addr`
for some directly-connected address. You will probably see the following:

After r263152 this leaves unused variables if route(8) is compiled
without INET support.
Switch the remaining variable accesses to flags and remove now obsolete
variables.

AppleTalk was a network transport protocol for Apple Macintosh devices
in 80s and then 90s. Starting with Mac OS X in 2000 the AppleTalk was
a legacy protocol and primary networking protocol is TCP/IP. The last
Mac OS X release to support AppleTalk happened in 2009. The same year
routing equipment vendors (namely Cisco) end their support.
Thus, AppleTalk won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.
IPX was a network transport protocol in Novell's NetWare network operating
system from late 80s and then 90s. The NetWare itself switched to TCP/IP
as default transport in 1998. Later, in this century the Novell Open
Enterprise Server became successor of Novell NetWare. The last release
that claimed to still support IPX was OES 2 in 2007. Routing equipment
vendors (e.g. Cisco) discontinued support for IPX in 2011.
Thus, IPX won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.

- Display a AF_LINK address in #linkN when sdl_{nlen,alen,slen) == 0 and
sdl_index != 0.
- Reduce unnecessary loop in pmsg_addrs().
- Remove iso_ntoa(). This is not used.
- Fix a bug in sodump() which prevented struct sockaddr_in6 from displaying.
- Fix a bug in in fiboptlist_csv() which could cause free() of uninitialized
pointer.
- Style cleanups:
. Add missing "static" keywords.
. Use an array of struct sockaddr_storage instead of sockunion for rtmsg.
. Use err() and errx() instead of pair of fprintf(stderr, "...") + exit(1).
. Use nitems() macro.
. Various style(9) fixes.
Since ARP and routing are separated, "proxy only" entries
don't have any meaning, thus we don't need additional field
in sockaddr to pass SIN_PROXY flag.
New kernel is binary compatible with old tools, since sizes
of sockaddr_inarp and sockaddr_in match, and sa_family are
filled with same value.
The structure declaration is left for compatibility with
third party software, but in tree code no longer use it.
