no need for ip6_id.c...

Move udp6_output() into udp6_usrreq.c, and remove udp6_output.c. This is
more consistent with IPv4, and there is no good reason for keeping a
separate file only for one function. FreeBSD did the same.

ip6flow refactor like ipflow.

- move ip6flow sysctls into ip6_flow.c like ip_flow.c:r1.64
- build ip6_flow.c only if GATEWAY kernel option is enabled

Add core networking support for SCTP.

Add DCCP protocol support from KAME.

add routines to print in6_addr and sockaddr_in6 (in6_print, sin6_print)

Refactor in_cksum/in4_cksum/in6_cksum implementations:
- All three functions are included in the kernel by default.

Refactor in_cksum/in4_cksum/in6_cksum implementations:
- All three functions are included in the kernel by default.
They call a backend function cpu_in_cksum after possibly
computing the checksum of the pseudo header.
- cpu_in_cksum is the core to implement the one-complement sum.
The default implementation is moderate fast on most platforms
and provides a 32bit accumulator with 16bit addends for L32 platforms
and a 64bit accumulator with 32bit addends for L64 platforms.
It handles edge cases like very large mbuf chains (could happen with
native IPv6 in the future) and provides a good base for new native
implementations.
- Modify i386 and amd64 assembly to use the new interface.

This disables the MD implementations on !x86 until the conversion is
done. For Alpha, the portable version is faster.

Add IPv6 Fast Forward - the IPv4 counterpart:

If ip6_forward successfully forwards a packet, a cache, in this case a
ip6flow struct entry, will be created. ether_input and friends will
then be able to call ip6flow_fastforward with the packet which will then
be passed to if_output (unless an issue is found - in that case the packet
is passed back to ip6_input).

Better support of IPv6 scoped addresses.

- most of the kernel code will not care about the actual encoding of
scope zone IDs and won't touch "s6_addr16[1]" directly.
- similarly, most of the kernel code will not care about link-local
scoped addresses as a special case.
- scope boundary check will be stricter. For example, the current
*BSD code allows a packet with src=::1 and dst=(some global IPv6
address) to be sent outside of the node, if the application do:
s = socket(AF_INET6);
bind(s, "::1");
sendto(s, some_global_IPv6_addr);
This is clearly wrong, since ::1 is only meaningful within a single
node, but the current implementation of the *BSD kernel cannot
reject this attempt.
- and, while there, don't try to remove the ff02::/32 interface route
entry in in6_ifdetach() as it's already gone.

This also includes some level of support for the standard source
address selection algorithm defined in RFC3484, which will be
completed on in the future.
