Group addressable endpoints can simply check if it has joined the
multicast group without maintaining address endpoints. This also
helps remove the dependency on AddressableEndpoint from
GroupAddressableEndpoint.
Now that group addresses are not tracked with address endpoints, we can
avoid accidentally obtaining a route with a multicast local address.

This change adds a Subnet() method to AddressableEndpoint so that we
can avoid repeated calls to AddressableEndpoint.AddressWithPrefix().Subnet().

We can get the network endpoint directly from the NIC.
This is a preparatory CL for when a Route needs to hold a dedicated NIC
as its output interface. This is because when forwarding is enabled,
packets may be sent from a NIC different from the NIC a route's local
address is associated with.

* Add network address to network endpoints.
Hold network-specific state in the NetworkEndpoint instead of the stack.
This results in the stack no longer needing to "know" about the network
endpoints and special case certain work for various endpoints
(e.g. IPv6 DAD).
* Provide NetworkEndpoints with an NetworkInterface interface.
Instead of just passing the NIC ID of a NIC, pass an interface so the
network endpoint may query other information about the NIC such as
whether or not it is a loopback device.
* Move NDP code and state to the IPv6 package.
NDP is IPv6 specific so there is no need for it to live in the stack.
* Control forwarding through NetworkProtocols instead of Stack
Forwarding should be controlled on a per-network protocol basis so
forwarding configurations are now controlled through network protocols.
* Remove stack.referencedNetworkEndpoint.
Now that addresses are exposed via AddressEndpoint and only one
NetworkEndpoint is created per interface, there is no need for a
referenced NetworkEndpoint.
* Assume network teardown methods are infallible.
