Add ability to send unicast ARP requests and Neighbor Solicitations

The previous implementation of LinkAddressRequest only supported sending
broadcast ARP requests and multicast Neighbor Solicitations. The ability to
send these packets as unicast is required for Neighbor Unreachability
Detection.

Tests:
 pkg/tcpip/network/arp:arp_test
 - TestLinkAddressRequest

 pkg/tcpip/network/ipv6:ipv6_test
 - TestLinkAddressRequest
