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).
RFC6126bis formally introduces sub-TLVs to the Babel protocol, including
mandatory sub-TLVs. This adds support for parsing sub-TLVs to the Babel
protocol and skips TLVs that contain mandatory sub-TLVs, as per the spec.
For details, see section 4.4 of
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-babel-rfc6126bis-02

This adds support for dual-stack v4/v6 operation to the Babel protocol.
Routing messages will be exchanged over IPv6, but IPv4 routes can be
carried in the messages being exchanged. This matches how the reference
Babel implementation (babeld) works.
The nexthop address for v4 can be configured per interface, and will
default to the first available IPv4 address on the given interface. For
symmetry, a configuration option to configure the IPv6 nexthop address
is also added.

This makes BIRD send a wildcard retraction on all interfaces before
shutting down and right after starting up. This helps ensure that
neighbours will discard the announced routes as soon as possible,
rather than only after the normal timeout procedures.

Intervals are carried as 16-bit centisecond values, but kept internally
in 16-bit second values, which causes a potential for overflow. This adds
some checks to make sure this does not happen.

This patch implements the IPv6 subset of the Babel routing protocol.
Based on the patch from Toke Hoiland-Jorgensen, with some heavy
modifications and bugfixes.
Thanks to Toke Hoiland-Jorgensen for the original patch.
