Remove AssignableAddressEndpoint.NetworkEndpoint

We can get the network endpoint directly from the NIC.

This is a preparatory CL for when a Route needs to hold a dedicated NIC
as its output interface. This is because when forwarding is enabled,
packets may be sent from a NIC different from the NIC a route's local
address is associated with.
