Right now, we send each tcp packet separately, we call one system
call per-packet. This patch allows to generate multiple tcp packets
and send them by sendmmsg.
The arguable part of this CL is a way how to handle multiple headers.
This CL adds the next field to the Prepandable buffer.

Like (AF_INET, SOCK_RAW) sockets, AF_PACKET sockets require CAP_NET_RAW. With
runsc, you'll need to pass `--net-raw=true` to enable them.
Binding isn't supported yet.

Previously, the only safe way to use an fdbased endpoint was to leak the FD.
This change makes it possible to safely close the FD.
This is the first step towards having stoppable stacks.
Updates #837

Adds support to generate Port Unreachable messages for UDP
datagrams received on a port for which there is no valid
endpoint.
Fixes#703

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.

iptables also relies on IPPROTO_RAW in a way. It opens such a socket to
manipulate the kernel's tables, but it doesn't actually use any of the
functionality. Blegh.

Having raw socket code together will make it easier to add support for other raw
network protocols. Currently, only ICMP uses the raw endpoint. However, adding
support for other protocols such as UDP shouldn't be much more difficult than
adding a few switch cases.

IP_MULTICAST_LOOP controls whether or not multicast packets sent on the default
route are looped back. In order to implement this switch, support for sending
and looping back multicast packets on the default route had to be implemented.
For now we only support IPv4 multicast.

Broadly, this change:
* Enables sockets to be created via `socket(AF_INET, SOCK_RAW, IPPROTO_ICMP)`.
* Passes the network-layer (IP) header up the stack to the transport endpoint,
which can pass it up to the socket layer. This allows a raw socket to return
the entire IP packet to users.
* Adds functions to stack.TransportProtocol, stack.Stack, stack.transportDemuxer
that enable incoming packets to be delivered to raw endpoints. New raw sockets
of other protocols (not ICMP) just need to register with the stack.
* Enables ping.endpoint to return IP headers when created via SOCK_RAW.

...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).

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.

This allows a NetworkDispatcher to implement transparent bridging,

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.
