Map IPv{4,6} addresses to ethernet addresses
...in accordance with RFCs 1112 and 2464. Fixes IPv4 multicast when IP_MULTICAST_IF is specified. Don't return ErrNoRoute when no route is needed. Don't set Route.NextHop when no route is needed. PiperOrigin-RevId: 236199813 Change-Id: I48ed33e1b7f760deaa37e18ad7f1b8b62819ab43
