The primary entry and the corresponding secondary entries are missing when there
are no neighbors on the primary interface. This also causes the TT entries to
miss and makes nodes with multiply secondary interface fall apart since there
is no way to see they are related without a primary entry.
Fix this by always emitting a primary entry.

Added additional counters in a bat_stats structure, which are exported
through the ethtool api. The counters are specific to batman-adv and
includes:
forwarded packets and bytes
management packets and bytes (aggregated OGMs at this point)
translation table packets
New counters are added by extending "enum bat_counters" in types.h and
adding corresponding descriptive string(s) to bat_counters_strings in
soft-iface.c.
Counters are increased by calling batadv_add_counter() and incremented
by one by calling batadv_inc_counter().

skb_linearize(skb) possibly rearranges the skb internal data and then changes
the skb->data pointer value. For this reason any other pointer in the code that
was assigned skb->data before invoking skb_linearise(skb) must be re-assigned.
In the current tt_query message handling code this is not done and therefore, in
case of skb linearization, the pointer used to handle the packet header ends up
in pointing to poisoned memory. The packet is then dropped but the
translation-table mechanism is corrupted.

In case of a client X roaming from a generic node A to another node B, it is
possible that a third node C gets A's OGM but not B's. At this point in time, if
C wants to send data to X it will send a unicast packet destined to A. The
packet header will contain A's last ttvn (C got A's OGM and so it knows it).
The packet will travel towards A without being intercepted because the ttvn
contained in its header is the newest for A.
Once A will receive the packet, A's state will not report to be in a "roaming
phase" (because, after a roaming, once A sends out its OGM, all the changes are
committed and the node is considered not to be in the roaming state anymore)
and it will match the ttvn carried by the packet. Therefore there is no reason
for A to try to alter the packet's route, thus dropping the packet because the
destination client is not there anymore.
However, C is well aware that it's routing information towards the client X is
outdated as it received an OGM from A saying that the client roamed away.
Thanks to this detail, this patch introduces a small change in behaviour: as
long as C is in the state of not knowing the new location of client X it will
forward the traffic to its last known location using ttvn-1 of the destination.
By using an older ttvn node A will be forced to re-route the packet.
Intermediate nodes are also allowed to update the packet's destination as long
as they have the information about the client's new location.

batman-adv would forward OGMs from non-besthops while replacing the the TQ
and TTL values with the values from the best hop. In certain corner cases
this leads to a temporary routing loop.
This patch changes this behavior: Only packets from best next hops are
forwarded - TQ and TTL values won't be replaced anymore. However, the protocol
needs to rebroadcast OGMs from single hop neighbors regardless of whether or
not they are the best hop. To handle this case a new flag is introduced to
alert neighboring nodes about the forwarded OGM that is not from my best
next hop. It is to be discarded by all nodes except for the one originating
the OGM.

When we receive an OGM from from a node for the first time, the last_real_seqno
field of the orig_node structure has not been initialised yet. The value of this
field is used to compute the current ogm-seqno window and therefore the
protection mechanism will probably drop the packet due to an out-of-window error.
To avoid this situation this patch adds a check to skip the window protection
mechanism if no neighbour nodes have already been added. When the first
neighbour node is added, the last_real_seqno field is initialised too.

This second version of the bridge loop avoidance for batman-adv
avoids loops between the mesh and a backbone (usually a LAN).
By connecting multiple batman-adv mesh nodes to the same ethernet
segment a loop can be created when the soft-interface is bridged
into that ethernet segment. A simple visualization of the loop
involving the most common case - a LAN as ethernet segment:
node1 <-- LAN --> node2
| |
wifi <-- mesh --> wifi
Packets from the LAN (e.g. ARP broadcasts) will circle forever from
node1 or node2 over the mesh back into the LAN.
With this patch, batman recognizes backbone gateways, nodes which are
part of the mesh and backbone/LAN at the same time. Each backbone
gateway "claims" clients from within the mesh to handle them
exclusively. By restricting that only responsible backbone gateways
may handle their claimed clients traffic, loops are effectively
avoided.
