This should reduce the number of syscalls required to process packets
significantly and improve throughputs.

...to (remote, local), reflecting the (correct) names in the implementation of
DeliverNetworkPacket (see tcpip/stack/nic.go).
Also trim the names in DeliverNetworkPacket and elsewhere to avoid stuttering;
since the type is tcpip.LinkAddress, there's no need to include "LinkAddr" in
the parameter names.
Note that every callsite passes arguments in the order (src, dst).

This allows a NetworkDispatcher to implement transparent bridging,
assuming all implementations of LinkEndpoint.WritePacket call eth.Encode
with header.EthernetFields.SrcAddr set to the passed
Route.LocalLinkAddress, if it is provided.

Makes it possible to avoid copying or allocating in cases where DeliverNetworkPacket (rx)
needs to turn around and call WritePacket (tx) with its VectorisedView.
Also removes the restriction on having VectorisedViews with multiple views in the write path.

Add option to redirect packet back to netstack if it's destined to itself.
This fixes the problem where connecting to the local NIC address would
not work, e.g.:
echo bar | nc -l -p 8080 &
echo foo | nc 192.168.0.2 8080

epsocket. More flags can be added over time.
