Formerly, when a packet is constructed or parsed, all headers are set by the
client code. This almost always involved prepending to pk.Header buffer or
trimming pk.Data portion. This is known to prone to bugs, due to the complexity
and number of the invariants assumed across netstack to maintain.
In the new PacketHeader API, client will call Push()/Consume() method to
construct/parse an outgoing/incoming packet. All invariants, such as slicing
and trimming, are maintained by the API itself.
NewPacketBuffer() is introduced to create new PacketBuffer. Zero value is no
longer valid.
PacketBuffer now assumes the packet is a concatenation of following portions:
* LinkHeader
* NetworkHeader
* TransportHeader
* Data
Any of them could be empty, or zero-length.

gVisor incorrectly returns the wrong ARP type for SIOGIFHWADDR. This breaks
tcpdump as it tries to interpret the packets incorrectly.
Similarly, SIOCETHTOOL is used by tcpdump to query interface properties which
fails with an EINVAL since we don't implement it. For now change it to return
EOPNOTSUPP to indicate that we don't support the query rather than return
EINVAL.
NOTE: ARPHRD types for link endpoints are distinct from NIC capabilities
and NIC flags. In Linux all 3 exist eg. ARPHRD types are stored in dev->type
field while NIC capabilities are more like the device features which can be
queried using SIOCETHTOOL but not modified and NIC Flags are fields that can
be modified from user space. eg. NIC status (UP/DOWN/MULTICAST/BROADCAST) etc.

... and unify logic for detached netsted endpoints.
sniffer.go caused crashes if a packet delivery is attempted when the dispatcher
is nil.
Extracted the endpoint nesting logic into a common composable type so it can be
used by the Fuchsia Netstack (the pattern is widespread there).
