Linux doesn't have ARO support at the moment so this is a workaround to
try to speak 6Lo-ND while still being able to do DAD with a border
router that doesn't.
UDP port 0 is reserved for system usage, e.g., to tell the OS to
set a random source port. Hence, neither source nor destination
port should be 0 when transmitting. This PR adds proper asserts.
While `tmp` in the loop for write-protection for the check-sum
calculation is used to check the return value of
`gnrc_pktbuf_start_write()`, it was never overwriting `payload` causing
the original snip to be used in the following iteration `prev` when
duplicated, and destroying the sanity of `ipv6`.
A CoAP resource is a primary object between the application
and CoAP library. The Library needs the paths, methods,
and handlers from it, so that it can call the right handler.
However, it never needs to change any of them.
The application also needs the resources. The application
may want to declare the resources as const, since it may
want to store them in flash.
This refactors reception/decoding part of `gnrc_sixlowpan_iphc` to the
more layered approach modeled in #8511. Since the reception part is
already complicated enough I decided to divide send and receive up into
separate changes.
This refactors sending/encoding part of `gnrc_sixlowpan_iphc` to the

already was pretty complicated to refactor, I decided to divide send
and receive up into separate changes.
This will be used in the IPHC refactoring to control the reassembly
buffer as a context.
I also adapted the name of `gnrc_sixlowpan_frag_gc_rbuf()` to be in
line with the rest of the newer functions.
Add additional checks to the port number parsing in str2ep to validate
the port number supplied in the string. This only verifies that the port
number is no longer than 5 chars and the resulting number fits in a
uint16_t.
It is still possible to supply up to 5 random chars.
URLs without a path were treated as invalid, while according to the URL
specification they are valid
Also fixes a missing null terminator in the returned path
On a NETOPT_STATE set call with NETOPT_STATE_RESET the netdev device
resets the callback event flags. This requires that after the netdev
device resets, the network stack also reapplies these callback event
flags
This change is a gnrc_ipv6_nib/gnrc_netif(2)-based rework of #7210.
Packet duplication
==================
Its main optimization is that it restructures `gnrc_ipv6` handling of
sent packets so that duplication for write-protection happens at the
latest possible step:
* potential `gnrc_netif` headers added by upper layers are
write-protected before their removal
* This unifies the duplication of the IPv6 header directly after
that
* Extension headers in-between the IPv6 header and the payload header
are duplicated just before the check sum is duplicated
Especially the last point allows for only handing a single packet snip
to all lower functions instead of an already searched IPv6 header
(which now is always the first until it is handed to the interface) +
payload header.
Further clean-ups
=================
* Next-hop link-layer address determination was moved to the
`_send_unicast` function, greatly simplifying the unicast case in the
`_send` function
* Code for loopback case was added to a new function `_send_to_self`
* Removed some code duplication
