1127ac6ec7 Cleaned up system configuration files -- removed few obsolete parameters,
documented the remaining ones (sysdep/cf/README).

Available configurations:

   o  linux-20: Old Linux interface via /proc/net/route (selected by default
		on pre-2.1 kernels).
   o  linux-21: Old Linux interface, but device routes handled by the
		kernel (selected by default for 2.1 and newer kernels).
   o  linux-22: Linux with Netlink (I play with it a lot yet, so it isn't
		a default).
   o  linux-ipv6: Prototype config for IPv6 on Linux. Not functional yet.

2d14045224 Rewrote the kernel syncer. The old layering was horrible.
The new kernel syncer is cleanly split between generic UNIX module
and OS dependent submodules:

  -  krt.c (the generic part)
  -  krt-iface (low-level functions for interface handling)
  -  krt-scan (low-level functions for routing table scanning)
  -  krt-set (low-level functions for setting of kernel routes)

krt-set and krt-iface are common for all BSD-like Unices, krt-scan is heavily
system dependent (most Unices require /dev/kmem parsing, Linux uses /proc),
Netlink substitues all three modules.

We expect each UNIX port supports kernel routing table scanning, kernel
interface table scanning, kernel route manipulation and possibly also
asynchronous event notifications (new route, interface state change;
not implemented yet) and build the KRT protocol on the top of these
primitive operations.

140f034105 Added CONFIG_AUTO_ROUTES (automatic device route creation) and
CONFIG_ALL_MULTICAST (all interfaces capable of multicasting, not depending
on IFF_MULTICAST flag).

25697773b5 The library is now glued together from generic and OS-dependent parts
by the `mergedirs' script. Few more IP address manipulation functions
and some fixes.
