This adds some extra inany helpers for comparing an inany address to
addresses of a specific family (including special addresses), and building
an inany from an IPv4 address (either statically or at runtime).

Introduce ip.[ch] file to encapsulate IP protocol handling functions and
structures. Modify various files to include the new header ip.h when
it's needed.

This makes several tweaks to improve the logic which decides whether
we're able to use the splice method for a new connection.
* Rather than only calling tcp_splice_conn_from_sock() in pasta mode, we
check for pasta mode within it, better localising the checks.
* Previously if we got a connection from a non-loopback address we'd
always fall back to the "tap" path, even if the connection was on a
socket in the namespace. If we did get a non-loopback address on a
namespace socket, something has gone wrong and the "tap" path certainly
won't be able to handle it. Report the error and close, rather than
passing it along to tap.

Our inany_addr type is used in some places to represent either IPv4 or
IPv6 addresses, and we plan to use it more widely. We don't yet
provide constants of this type for special addresses (loopback and
"any"). Add some of these, both the IPv4 and IPv6 variants of those
addresses, but typed as union inany_addr.
To avoid actually adding more things to .data we can use some macros and
casting to overlay the IPv6 versions of these with the standard library's
in6addr_loopback and in6addr_any. For the IPv4 versions we need to create
new constant globals.
For complicated historical reasons, the standard library doesn't
provide constants for IPv4 loopback and any addresses as struct
in_addr. It just has macros of type in_addr_t == uint32_t, which has
some gotchas w.r.t. endianness. We can use some more macros to
address this lack, using macros to effectively create these IPv4
constants as pieces of the inany constants above.
We use this last to avoid some awkward temporary variables just used
to get an address of an IPv4 loopback address.

Add this helper to format an inany into either IPv4 or IPv6 text
format as appropriate.
