254f16e81f gnrc_sixlowpan_frag: add asynchronous rbuf GC
While the current approach for garbage collection in the 6Lo reassembly
buffer is good for best-effort handling of
*fragmented* packets and nicely RAM saving, it has the problem that
incomplete, huge datagrams can basically DoS a node, if no further
fragmented datagram is received for a while (since the packet buffer is
full and GC is not triggered).

This change adds a asynchronous GC (utilizing the existing
functionality) to the reassembly buffer, so that even if there is no new
fragmented packet received, fragments older than `RBUF_TIMEOUT` will be
removed from the reassembly buffer, freeing up the otherwise wasted
packet buffer space.

86cbde2db5 gnrc_sixlowpan_frag: expose (parts of) reassembly buffer
This exposes the parts of the reassembly buffer to be usable as context
as proposed in #8511.

I only exposed *parts of* for two reasons:

1. I don't need to expose further types (like `rbuf_int_t`), that are
   not of interest outside of fragmentation.
2. This allows for an easy future extension for the virtual reassembly
   buffer as proposed in [[1]].

This makes this change a little bit more involved, because instead of
just renaming the type, I also need to add the usage of the `super`
member, but I think in the end this little preparation work will be
beneficial in the future.
