PATCH v2 1/1 sunvnet: clean up objects created in vnet_new() on vnet_exit()

Nothing cleans up the objects created by
vnet_new(), they are completely leaked.

vnet_exit(), after doing the vio_unregister_driver() to clean up ports, should call a helper function that iterates over vnet_list and cleans up those objects. This includes unregister_netdevice() as well as free_netdev().

---
v2: incorporated comments from David Miller.
v3: muttrc config tweaks to avoid list-rejection
and set up correct From/Message-ID headers.
