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.

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
