This paves the way for a variety of more interesting interactions
between drivers and the stack which are currently not possible
(e.g. checksum offload, #18744). The main advantage for the moment
is that we will save a memcpy of the buffer on each send/receive.
Adapt the virtio_net driver so that at least one driver is using
the new interface. Network still seems to work OK with it.

* The device interface list now uses class DoublyLinkedList instead of struct list.
* Implemented SIOC[SG]IFMEDIA for setting (not supported by any device yet), and
retrieving the device media information.
* Fixed a locking bug in list_domain_interfaces().
* Added new stack function device_link_changed() that should be called in case the
link state (media) changed.
* The ethernet device module now spawns a thread and will periodically check the media
state of all ethernet devices that support this (if any).
* Minor cleanup.

it might also be a good idea to change the constants to better match the usual
style.
* Added a BSD-style if_media.h.
* Added interface flags IFF_LINK, IFF_AUTO_CONFIGURED, and IFF_CONFIGURING. The
former will be set automatically by the stack, the rest will be set by the
net_server depending on the current state.

replacing files when merging when you don't have deleted them manually (for some reason,
it only works as part of the merge operation, and we didn't copy the whole tree to
have "a fresh start" - next time we know better, at least if SVN still suffers from
that same limitation).
