batman-adv: Add multicast optimization support for bridged setups
PATCH v4 1/2 batman-adv: Add multicast optimization support for bridged setups
So far, the recently added multicast optimizations did not support a configuration where a bridge is on top of the soft-interface (e.g. bat0).
Now the Linux bridge code is able to provide us with the missing bits:
Multicast Listeners: The bridge hands us a list of multicast listeners it has detected behind the bridge which we will announce through the mesh via the translation table, allowing other nodes to direct multicast packets to these clients behind the bridge even with enabled multicast optimizations.
Queriers: The bridge informs us whether there is a selected IGMP or MLD querier behind the bridge or if there is no querier at all. In these cases we need all according IPv4 or IPv6 multicast traffic directed to us.
These two parts together allow us to serve all multicast listeners with IPv6 link-local multicast packets even when bridges are involved and our multicast optimizations enabled.

Changes in v4:
* none
Changes in v3:
* Removed "RFC" tag in title again: The stubs and new export are upstream in net-next and therefore going to be included in 3.17
* Added some debug output:
* Two warning messages:
-> Old kernel version or no bridge IGMP/MLD snooping compiled
* New batman-adv log-level "mcast":
-> Logging mcast flag changes (a third debugging facility, a new table for debugfs for a global
mcast flag overview will be added in a separate patch later as discussed with Simon)
Changes in v2:
* fetching local (= on this same kernel) multicast listeners from the bridge instead of the bat0 interface if a bridge is present
- just like ip addresses and routes should be used from br0, the same goes for multicast listeners
* beautification of batadv_mcast_mla_br_addr_cpy(), now using already present functions from the kernel instead of own, hackish approach
* changed names of some goto-labels (not using "skip" anymore)
* using new, third bridge multicast export (because this export is not upstream yet, I've added the "RFC" in the title):
br_multicast_has_querier_anywhere()
* adding compat stubs for two bridge multicast exports, to make batman-adv compile- and usable even if a 3.16 kernel was compiled without bridge code - the stubs are supposed to be upstream in the bridge code in 3.17 (therefore just 'compat')
* updated kerneldocs for batadv_mcast_mla_bridge_get() and batadv_mcast_mla_softif_get()
* The two sentences in the commit message starting with "Queriers: ..." were slightly modified to include the third bridge multicast export

PATCH v4 2/2 batman-adv: Add debugfs table for mcast flags
This patch adds a debugfs table with originators and their according multicast flags to help users figure out why multicast optimizations might be enabled or disabled for them.
