949d6b405e net: add missing includes and forward declarations under net/
This patch adds missing includes to headers under include/net.
All these problems are currently masked by the existing users
including the missing dependency before the broken header.

80690ec6b5 nexthop: Convert to blocking notification chain
Currently, the only listener of the nexthop notification chain is the
VXLAN driver. Subsequent patches will add more listeners (e.g., device
drivers such as netdevsim) that need to be able to block when processing
notifications.

Therefore, convert the notification chain to a blocking one. This is
safe as notifications are always emitted from process context.

ab84be7e54 net: Initial nexthop code
Barebones start point for nexthops. Implementation for RTM commands,
notifications, management of rbtree for holding nexthops by id, and
kernel side data structures for nexthops and nexthop config.

Nexthops are maintained in an rbtree sorted by id. Similar to routes,
nexthops are configured per namespace using netns_nexthop struct added
to struct net.

Nexthop notifications are sent when a nexthop is added or deleted,
but NOT if the delete is due to a device event or network namespace
teardown (which also involves device events). Applications are
expected to use the device down event to flush nexthops and any
routes used by the nexthops.
