70fab17837 Babel: Add option to randomize router ID
When a Babel node restarts, it loses its sequence number, which can cause
its routes to be rejected by peers until the state is cleared out by other
nodes in the network (which can take on the order of minutes).

There are two ways to fix this: Having stable storage to keep the sequence
number across restarts, or picking a different router ID each time.

This implements the latter, by introducing a new option that will cause
BIRD to randomize a high 32 bits of router ID every time it starts up.
This avoids the problem at the cost of not having stable router IDs in
the network.

Thanks to Toke Hoiland-Jorgensen for the patch.

23b079043b Babel: Fix type of route entry router ID
The router ID being assigned to routes was a uint, which discards the
upper 32 bits. This also has the nice side effect of echoing the wrong
router ID back to other routers.

Thanks to Toke Hoiland-Jorgensen for the patch.

185a0a51f8 Babel: Add source-specific routing support
This patch adds support for source-specific routing to the Babel protocol.
It changes the protocol to support both NET_IP6 and NET_IP6_SADR channels
for IPv6 addresses. If only a NET_IP6 channel is configured,
source-specific updates are ignored. Otherwise, non-source-specific
routes are simply treated as source-specific routes with SADR prefix 0.

Thanks to Toke Hoiland-Jorgensen for the original patch.

3b3b0910ff Babel: More changes and bugfixes
Several changes and bugfixes in Babel, namely:

- Exported route parameters stored directly in route table entry
- Exported non-babel routes no longer stored in per-entry route list
- Route update, selection and retraction simplified and fixed
- Route feasibility is evalualated per update and stored with route
- Unreachable route handling fixed, based on hold interval
- Added 'show babel routes' command

Overall, it fixes some issues with proper propagation of triggered
updates, making Babel convergence after topology change almost
instant.

4324025f98 Babel: Add support for dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 operation
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.

Thanks to Toke Høiland-Jørgensen <toke@toke.dk> for the patch.

13a31a4001 Babel: Immediately update hello interval on interface reconfigure
An interface reconfiguration may change both the hello and update
intervals. An update interval change is immediately put into effect,
while a hello interval change is not. This also updates the hello
interval immediately (if the new interval is shorter than the old one),
and sends a hello to notify peers of the change.

c6ed5a0f99 Babel: Do not maintain feasibility distance for our own routes
We do not need to maintain feasibility distances for our own router
ID (we ignore the updates anyway). Not doing so makes the routes be
garbage collected sooner when export filters change.

0f67366601 Babel: Do not keep an infeasible route as selected
When a route becomes infeasible it should not be kept as selected; this
is forbidden by section 3.6 of the RFC and prevents subsequent updates
from the same router ID from replacing it.

5d6ca22085 Babel: Send wildcard retractions on shutdown and startup
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.

ecae2f43f3 Babel: Rework handling of retractions
An update with wildcard AE and infinite metric should be treated as a
global retraction of all prefixes announced by that neighbour, per
section 4.4.9 of the RFC. In addition, router ID and seqno in retraction
updates should be ignored. This reworks the handling of retractions and
adjusts the parser to handle all this correctly.
