Move IP state from NIC to NetworkEndpoint/Protocol
* Add network address to network endpoints. Hold network-specific state in the NetworkEndpoint instead of the stack. This results in the stack no longer needing to "know" about the network endpoints and special case certain work for various endpoints (e.g. IPv6 DAD). * Provide NetworkEndpoints with an NetworkInterface interface. Instead of just passing the NIC ID of a NIC, pass an interface so the network endpoint may query other information about the NIC such as whether or not it is a loopback device. * Move NDP code and state to the IPv6 package. NDP is IPv6 specific so there is no need for it to live in the stack. * Control forwarding through NetworkProtocols instead of Stack Forwarding should be controlled on a per-network protocol basis so forwarding configurations are now controlled through network protocols. * Remove stack.referencedNetworkEndpoint. Now that addresses are exposed via AddressEndpoint and only one NetworkEndpoint is created per interface, there is no need for a referenced NetworkEndpoint. * Assume network teardown methods are infallible. Fixes #3871, #3916 PiperOrigin-RevId: 334319433
