lwIP produces a TCP Initial Sequence Number (ISN) for each new TCP
connection. The current algorithm is simple and predictable however.
The result is that lwIP TCP connections may be the target of TCP
spoofing attacks. The problem of such attacks is well known, and a
recommended ISN generation algorithm is standardized in RFC 6528.
This algorithm requires a high-resolution timer and cryptographic
hashing function, though. The implementation (or best-effort
approximation) of both of these aspects is well beyond the scope of
lwIP itself.
For that reason, this patch adds LWIP_HOOK_TCP_ISN, a hook that
allows each platform to implement its own ISN generation using
locally available means. The hook provides full flexibility, in
that the hook may generate anything from a simple random number
(by being set to LWIP_RAND()) to a full RFC 6528 implementation.
Implementation note:
Users of the hook would typically declare the function prototype of
the hook function in arch/cc.h, as this is the last place where such
prototypes can be supplied. However, at that point, the ip_addr_t
type has not yet been defined. For that reason, this patch removes
the leading underscore from "struct _ip_addr", so that a prototype
of the hook function can use "struct ip_addr" instead of "ip_addr_t".

Previously, ethip6 and lowpan6 each had their own copy of code that
used internal nd6 data structures to decide whether to send a packet
on the local link right away, or queue it while nd6 performed local
address resolution. This patch moves that code into nd6, thereby
eliminating all remaining cases of external access to internal nd6
data structures, as well as the need to expose two specific nd6
functions.
As a side effect, the patch effectively fixes two bugs in the lowpan6
code that were already fixed in the ethip6 code.
This patch rearranges the code division between nd6.c and ip6.c such
that the latter does not need to access ND6-internal data structures
(specifically, "default_router_list") directly anymore.
The new function, while currently not used internally, allows external
code to clear the ND destination cache in the case that it may have
become inconsistent with the current situation, for example as the
result of a change of locally assigned addresses, or a change in
routing tables implemented through the LWIP_HOOK_ND6_GET_GW hook.
On failure, nd6_get_next_hop_entry() returns an ERR_ type negative
error code. ethip6_output() erroneously assumed that that error would
always be ERR_MEM, even though it may also be ERR_RTE in practice.
With this patch, ethip6_output() simply forwards the returned error.

This is because a void* type is casted into an unsigned long type,
which obviously isn't correct on LLP64 systems such as Windows.
Actually, we are not using %p, thus we remove %p support completely
instead of trying to fix the issue in unused code.
