Populate link address cache at dispatch
This allows the stack to learn remote link addresses on incoming packets, reducing the need to ARP to send responses. This also reduces the number of round trips to the system clock, since that may also prove to be performance-sensitive. Fixes #739. PiperOrigin-RevId: 265815816
