This fixes the issue of not being able to bind to either a multicast or
broadcast address as well as to send and receive data from it. The way to solve
this is to treat these addresses similar to the ANY address and register their
transport endpoint ID with the global stack's demuxer rather than the NIC's.
That way there is no need to require an endpoint with that multicast or
broadcast address. The stack's demuxer is in fact the only correct one to use,
because neither broadcast- nor multicast-bound sockets care which NIC a
packet was received on (for multicast a join is still needed to receive packets
on a NIC).
I also took the liberty of refactoring udp_test.go to consolidate a lot of
duplicate code and make it easier to create repetitive tests that test the same
feature for a variety of packet and socket types. For this purpose I created a
"flowType" that represents two things: 1) the type of packet being sent or
received and 2) the type of socket used for the test. E.g., a "multicastV4in6"
flow represents a V4-mapped multicast packet run through a V6-dual socket.
This allows writing significantly simpler tests. A nice example is testTTL().

This allows the user code to add a network address with a subnet prefix length.
The prefix length value is stored in the network endpoint and provided back to
the user in the ProtocolAddress type.

This is a preparation for GSO changes (cl/234508902).
RELNOTES[gofers]: Refactor checksum code to include length, which
it already did, but in a convoluted way. Should be a no-op.

This option allows multiple sockets to be bound to the same port.
Incoming packets are distributed to sockets using a hash based on source and
destination addresses. This means that all packets from one sender will be
received by the same server socket.

Previously, if address resolution for UDP or Ping sockets required sending
packets using Write in Transport layer, Resolve would return ErrWouldBlock
and Write would return ErrNoLinkAddress. Meanwhile startAddressResolution
would run in background. Further calls to Write using same address would also
return ErrNoLinkAddress until resolution has been completed successfully.
Since Write is not allowed to block and System Calls need to be
interruptible in System Call layer, the caller to Write is responsible for
blocking upon return of ErrWouldBlock.
Now, when startAddressResolution is called a notification channel for
the completion of the address resolution is returned.
The channel will traverse up to the calling function of Write as well as
ErrNoLinkAddress. Once address resolution is complete (success or not) the
channel is closed. The caller would call Write again to send packets and
check if address resolution was compeleted successfully or not.

Previously, dual stack UDP sockets bound to an IPv4 address could not use
sendto to communicate with IPv4 addresses. Further, dual stack UDP sockets
bound to an IPv6 address could use sendto to communicate with IPv4 addresses.
Neither of these behaviors are consistent with Linux.
