Babel: Revamp cost computation and run route selection when cost change

Also fix several minor bugs and add 'limit' option for k-out-of-j
link sensing strategy. Change default from 8-of-16 to 12-of-16.
Change IHU expiry factor from 1.5 to 3.5 (as in RFC 6126).

<tag><label id="babel-type">type wired|wireless </tag>
This option specifies the interface type: Wired or wireless. Wired
interfaces are considered more reliable, and so the default hello
interval is higher, and a neighbour is considered unreachable after only
a small number of "hello" packets are lost. On wireless interfaces,
hello packets are sent more often, and the ETX link quality estimation
technique is used to compute the metrics of routes discovered over this
interface. This technique will gradually degrade the metric of routes
when packets are lost rather than the more binary up/down mechanism of
wired type links. Default: <cf/wired/.
This option specifies the interface type: Wired or wireless. On wired
interfaces a neighbor is considered unreachable after a small number of
Hello packets are lost, as described by <cf/limit/ option. On wireless

gradually degrade the metric of routes when packets are lost rather than
the more binary up/down mechanism of wired type links. Default:
<cf/wired/.
<tag><label id="babel-rxcost">rxcost <m/num/</tag>
This specifies the RX cost of the interface. The route metrics will be
computed from this value with a mechanism determined by the interface
<cf/type/. Default: 96 for wired interfaces, 256 for wireless.
This option specifies the nominal RX cost of the interface. The effective
neighbor costs for route metrics will be computed from this value with a
mechanism determined by the interface <cf/type/. Note that in contrast to
other routing protocols like RIP or OSPF, the <cf/rxcost/ specifies the
cost of RX instead of TX, so it affects primarily neighbors' route
selection and not local route selection. Default: 96 for wired interfaces,
256 for wireless.
<tag><label id="babel-limit">limit <m/num/</tag>
BIRD keeps track of received Hello messages from each neighbor to
establish neighbor reachability. For wired type interfaces, this option
specifies how many of last 16 hellos have to be correctly received in
order to neighbor is assumed to be up. The option is ignored on wireless
type interfaces, where gradual cost degradation is used instead of sharp
limit. Default: 12.
<tag><label id="babel-hello">hello interval <m/num/</tag>
Interval at which periodic "hello" messages are sent on this interface,
Interval at which periodic Hello messages are sent on this interface,
in seconds. Default: 4 seconds.
