Since the GNRC_IPV6 is part of GNRC it should be a part of the gnrc compile time configuration group.
This adds information on the group to specify it is gnrc and changes the group from config to net_gnrc_conf
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.
`gnrc_sixlowpan_frag_rb_base_rm()` cleans up the intervals which is part
of `gnrc_sixlowpan_frag_rb`, not `gnrc_sixlowpan_frag`, so when the
`gnrc_sixlowpan_frag` is not compiled in, but `gnrc_sixlowpan_frag_rb`,
the intervals allocated in the reassembly buffer and inherited by the
virtual reassembly buffer are never released.
Preprocesor fails to evaluate the if condicion on L91-92 because
RTT_FREQUENCY is not defined, and therefore a division by 0 occurs.
TO avoid this replicate the RTT_FREQUENCY undefined warning.
45f7966 made the `src_len` field the "emptiness signifier" for the VRB.
However, when `gnrc_sixlowpan_frag` is compiled in, the remove function
`gnrc_sixlowpan_frag_vrb_rm()` does not set the `src_len` to zero,
resulting in already deleted entry to be recognized as non-empty.
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].

This imports the protocol parameters for Selective Fragment Recovery
(SFR). For the values I took some educated guesses based on my
experience with previous experimentation with fragment forwarding.
The defines currently are based on [draft v7].

fixup! gnrc_sixlowpan_frag: initial import of SRF parameters
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]

This module was intended to be a test framework for GNRC but it never
really got used. It was not maintained for 3 years. It will be removed
after 2020.07 release at the latest.
The functions now are semantic distinct:
- gnrc_netif_is_6lo(): the interface is a 6Lo interface
- gnrc_netif_is_6ln(): the interface is using Neighbor Discovery
according to RFC 6775
