Xiang Xiao 5fd8f78bf9 net/ipforward, tcp, and udp: Fix a chicken and egg problem by eliminating the check of the arp/neighbor tables before packet transmission ...

1. For buffered tcp/udp case, if CONFIG_NET_ARP_SEND/CONFIG_NET_ARP_IPIN/CONFIG_NET_ICMPv6_NEIGHBOR isn't enabled and the table doesn't contain ip<->ethaddr mapping yet, the logic will skip the realtransmission and then arp/neighbor can't steal the final buffer to generate arp/icmpv6 packet.
2.for all other case, the tcp layer or user program should already contain the retransmit logic, the check is redundancy and may generate many duplicated packets if arp/icmpv6 response is too slow because the cursor stop forward. If user still concern about the very first packet lost, he could fix the issue by enabling CONFIG_NET_ARP_SEND/CONFIG_NET_ICMPv6_NEIGHBOR at begin.

ipforward.h

Networking: Clean up some naming that has bothered me for a long time... There are no interrupts and no interrupt handlers in the network. There are events and event handler (there used to to be interrupt logic in there years ago but that is long, long gone).

ipfwd_alloc.c

6LoWPAN: The original, Contiki-based design used only a single buffer for reassemblying larger packets. This could be a problem issue for hub configurations which really need the capability concurrently reassemble multiple incoming streams concurrently. These was also a design issue in that the reassembly buffer could be corrupted by outgoing packets. The design was extended to support multiple reassembly buffers, each associated with the reassembly tag and source address. This assures that there can be be no corruption of the reassembly once it has started.

Kconfig

Remove CONFIG_NETDEV_MULTINIC. This increases code size by a little, but greatly reduces the complexity of the network code.
