Moved to a much more systematic way of configuring kernel protocols.
o Nothing is configured automatically. You _need_ to specify the kernel syncer in config file in order to get it started. o Syncing has been split to route syncer (protocol "Kernel") and interface syncer (protocol "Device"), device routes are generated by protocol "Direct" (now can exist in multiple instances, so that it will be possible to feed different device routes to different routing tables once multiple tables get supported). See doc/bird.conf.example for a living example of these shiny features.
