When a VRB entry exists use minfwd to forward.
When a route exist for the first fragment received in reassembly create
a virtual reassembly buffer entry.
This changes the prefixes of the symbols generated from USEMODULE and
USEPKG variables. The changes are as follow:
KCONFIG_MODULE_ => KCONFIG_USEMODULE_
KCONFIG_PKG_ => KCONFIG_USEPKG_
MODULE_ => USEMODULE_
PKG_ => USEPKG_
Replace direct accesses to sched_active_thread and sched_active_pid with
the helper functions thread_getpid() and thread_get_active(). This serves
two purposes:
1. It makes accidental writes to those variable from outside core less likely.
2. Casting off the volatile qualifier is now well contained to those two
functions
Coverty scan found this:
> CID 298295 (#1 of 1): Operands don't affect result (CONSTANT_EXPRESSION_RESULT) result_independent_of_operands:
> (ipv6_hdr_get_fl(ipv6_hdr) & 255) >> 8 is 0 regardless of the values of its operands.
Looking at the code, this appears to be a copy & paste error from the previous line.
Coverty scan found this:
> CID 298279 (#1 of 1): Out-of-bounds read (OVERRUN)
> 21. overrun-local: Overrunning array of 16 bytes at byte offset 64 by dereferencing pointer
The original intention was probably to advance the destination pointer by 4 bytes, not
4 * the destination type size.
Having the definitions sit in the `net/gnrc/sixlowpan/frag.h` header
does not make much sense, when using Selective Fragment Forwarding
(and the fragmentation buffer already includes a
`net/gnrc/sixlowpan/frag/stats.h` header), so they are moved to their
own header. Since with this change it makes more sense to have the
statistics stored in their own sub-module, the pseudo-module is also
actualized.
This fits with the semantics of this function which doesn't provide or
uses any state of the reassembly buffer provided by the user, but finds
the entry itself and then removes it. This gives the user no chance to
remove the packet in the reassembly buffer entry, so
`gnrc_sixlowpan_frag_rb_rm_by_datagram()` has to release the packet
(other than `gnrc_sixlowpan_frag_rb_remove()` where not releasing the
packet is desired as it might be handed up to an upper layer).
This allows to set a timer between the completion of a datagram in the
reassembly buffer and the deletion of the corresponding reassembly
buffer entry. This allows to ignore potentially late incoming link-layer
duplicates of fragments of the datagram that then will have the
reassembly buffer entry be blocked.
This was noted in this [discussion] for classic 6LoWPAN reassembly (and
minimal fragment forwarding) and is recommended in the current
[selective fragment recovery draft][SFR draft].

The name `fragment_msg` or `frag_msg`/`msg_frag` always to me was a bit
misplaced, as it basically implements an asynchronous fragmentation
buffer and doesn't necessarily have anything to do with messages.
This change
1. changes the name to `fb` (for fragmentation buffer)
2. factors its code out to its own sub-module so it can be re-used by
other 6LoWPAN fragmentation schemes like [Selective Fragment
Recovery]
