Previously a link endpoint was passed to
stack.LinkAddressResolver.LinkAddressRequest. With this change,
implementations that want a route for the link address request may
find one through the stack. Other implementations that want to send
a packet without a route may continue to do so using the network
interface directly.
Test: - arp_test.TestLinkAddressRequest
- ipv6.TestLinkAddressRequest

Fixes pkg/tcpip/stack:stack_test flake experienced while running
TestCacheResolution with gotsan. This occurs when the test-runner takes longer
than the resolution timeout to call linkAddrCache.get.
In this test we don't care about the resolution timeout, so set it to the
maximum and rely on test-runner timeouts to avoid deadlocks.

This change adds an option to replace the current implementation of ARP through
linkAddrCache, with an implementation of NUD through neighborCache. Switching
to using NUD for both ARP and NDP is beneficial for the reasons described by
RFC 4861 Section 3.1:
"[Using NUD] significantly improves the robustness of packet delivery in the
presence of failing routers, partially failing or partitioned links, or nodes
that change their link-layer addresses. For instance, mobile nodes can move
off-link without losing any connectivity due to stale ARP caches."
"Unlike ARP, Neighbor Unreachability Detection detects half-link failures and
avoids sending traffic to neighbors with which two-way connectivity is
absent."
Along with these changes exposes the API for querying and operating the
neighbor cache. Operations include:
- Create a static entry
- List all entries
- Delete all entries
- Remove an entry by address
This also exposes the API to change the NUD protocol constants on a per-NIC
basis to allow Neighbor Discovery to operate over links with widely varying
performance characteristics. See [RFC 4861 Section 10][1] for the list of
constants.
Finally, an API for subscribing to NUD state changes is exposed through
NUDDispatcher. See [RFC 4861 Appendix C][3] for the list of edges.

* Rename syncutil to sync.
* Add aliases to sync types.
* Replace existing usage of standard library sync package.
This will make it easier to swap out synchronization primitives. For example,
this will allow us to use primitives from github.com/sasha-s/go-deadlock to
check for lock ordering violations.

This allows the stack to learn remote link addresses on incoming
packets, reducing the need to ARP to send responses.
This also reduces the number of round trips to the system clock,
since that may also prove to be performance-sensitive.
Fixes#739.

Increase timeout to prevent the entry from being
found when there is delay on the address resolution
goroutine that doesn't mark the request as failed.

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.
