The RIOT-OS stack does send intra-pan frames but don't set the intra pan
flag inside the mac header. It seems this is valid frame addressing but
inefficient. Anyway this patch adds a new function for intra pan
addressing, doesn't matter if intra pan flag or source and destination
are the same. The newly introduction function will be used to check on
intra pan addressing for 6lowpan.

Looking at current situation of memory management in 6lowpan receive
function I detected some invalid handling. After calling
lowpan_invoke_rx_handlers we will do a kfree_skb and then NET_RX_DROP on
error handling. We don't do this before, also on
skb_share_check/skb_unshare which might manipulate the reference
counters.
After running some 'grep -r "dev_add_pack" net/' to look how others
packet-layer receive callbacks works I detected that every subsystem do
a kfree_skb, then NET_RX_DROP without calling skb functions which
might manipulate the skb reference counters. This is the reason why we
should do the same here like all others subsystems. I didn't find any
documentation how the packet-layer receive callbacks handle NET_RX_DROP
return values either.
This patch will add a kfree_skb, then NET_RX_DROP handling for the
"trivial checks", in case of skb_share_check/skb_unshare the kfree_skb
call will be done inside these functions.

This patch changes the lowpan_header_decompress function by removing
inklayer related information from parameters. This is currently for
supporting short and extended address for iphc handling in 802154.
We don't support short address handling anyway right now, but there
exists already code for handling short addresses in
lowpan_header_decompress.
The address parameters are also changed to a void pointer, so 6LoWPAN
linklayer specific code can put complex structures as these parameters
and cast it again inside the generic code by evaluating linklayer type
before. The order is also changed by destination address at first and
then source address, which is the same like all others functions where
destination is always the first, memcpy, dev_hard_header,
lowpan_header_compress, etc.
This patch also moves the fetching of iphc values from 6LoWPAN linklayer
specific code into the generic branch.

This patch adds support for increment transmit and receive stats. The
meaning of these stats are IPv6 based, which shows the stats after
running the 6lowpan adaptation layer (uncompression/compression,
fragmentation handling) on receive and before the adaptation layer
when transmit.

The ESC dispatch value has some history and it originally was 0x7f in rfc4944
(see section-5.1). With the release of rfc6282 this value got part of the
LOWPAN_IPHC range and was no longer available for ESC. Instead 0x40 was used
as replacement (see section-2 in rfc6282).
We have been checking the dispatch byte in an order where IPHC would always be
evaluated before ESC and thus we would never reach the ESC check as the IPHC
range already covers this value.

This patch remove the packet_type to host and leave the mac pkt_type.
By running 'grep -r "pkt_type" net/ipv6', the IPv6 stack will evaluate
this value for PACKET_BROADCAST. Instead of overwriting this value we
will leave the mac value there which is broadcasts if the mac frame was
a broadcast frame.

This patch introduce an earlier check if a 6LoWPAN frame can be valid.
This contains at first for checking if the header contains a dispatch
byte and isn't the nalp dispatch value, which means it isn't a 6LoWPAN
packet. Also we add a check if we can derference the dispatch value by
checking if skb->len is unequal zero.

This patch complete reworks the evaluation of 6lowpan dispatch value by
introducing a receive handler mechanism for each dispatch value.
A list of changes:
- Doing uncompression on-the-fly when FRAG1 is received, this require
some special handling for 802.15.4 lltype in generic 6lowpan branch
for setting the payload length correct.
- Fix dispatch mask for fragmentation.
- Add IPv6 dispatch evaluation for FRAG1.
- Add skb_unshare for dispatch which might manipulate the skb data
buffer.

We don't need to check if the wpan interface is running because the
lowpan_rcv is the packet layer receive handler for the wpan interface.
Instead doing a check if wpan interface is running we should check if
the lowpan interface is running before starting 6lowpan adaptation layer.

Inside the IEEE 802.15.4 6LoWPAN subsystem we use two interfaces which
are wpan and lowpan interfaces. Instead of using always the variable
name "dev" for both we rename the "dev" variable to wdev which means the
wpan net_device and ldev which means a lowpan net_device. This avoids
confusing and always looking back to see which net_device is meant by
the variable name "dev".

because it's much easier do deal with address changes inside the under
laying wpan interface.
This patch removes the multiple lowpan interface and adds a lowpan_dev
netdev pointer into the wpan_dev, if this pointer isn't null the wpan
interface belongs to the assigned lowpan interface.
