Send ICMP errors when link address resolution fails
Before this change, we would silently drop packets when link resolution
failed. This change brings us into line with RFC 792 (IPv4) and RFC 4443 (IPv6),
both of which specify that gateways should return an ICMP error to the sender
when link resolution fails.
