The tap code passes the IPv4 or IPv6 destination address of packets it
receives to the protocol specific code. Currently that protocol code
doesn't use the source address, but we want it to in future. So, in
preparation, pass the IPv4/IPv6 source address of tap packets to those
functions as well.

In tap6_handler() saddr is initialized to the IPv6 source address from the
incoming packet. However part way through, but before organizing the
packet into a "sequence" we set it unconditionally to the guest's assigned
address. We don't do anything equivalent for IPv4.
This doesn't make a lot of sense: if the guest is using a different source
address it makes sense to consider these different sequences of packets and
we shouldn't try to combine them together.

epoll_ref contains a variety of information useful when handling epoll
events on our sockets, and we place it in the epoll_event data field
returned by epoll. However, for a few other things we use the 'fd' field
in the standard union of types for that data field.
This actually introduces a bug which is vanishingly unlikely to hit in
practice, but very nasty if it ever did: theoretically if we had a very
large file descriptor number for fd_tap or fd_tap_listen it could overflow
into bits that overlap with the 'proto' field in epoll_ref. With some
very bad luck this could mean that we mistakenly think an event on a
regular socket is an event on fd_tap or fd_tap_listen.
More practically, using different (but overlapping) fields of the
epoll_data means we can't unify dispatch for the various different objects
in the epoll. Therefore use the same epoll_ref as the data for the tap
fds and the netns quit fd, adding new fd type values to describe them.

We call tap_sock_unix_new() to handle a new connection to the qemu socket

on the fd, we'll fall through to the "tap reset" path. But that won't do
anything relevant to the listening socket, it will just close the already
connected socket. Furthermore, the only other event we're subscribed to
for the listening socket is EPOLLRDHUP, which doesn't apply to a non
connected socket.
Remove EPOLLRDHUP from the subscribed events. We don't need to explicitly
add EPOLLERR, because errors are always reported. There's no obvious case
that would cause an error on a listening socket anyway, and it's not
obvious how we'd recover, treat it as a fatal error if it ever does happen.

In tap_handler() if we get an error on the tap device or socket, we use
tap_sock_init() to re-initialise it. However, what we actually need for
this reset case has remarkably little in common with the case where we're
initialising for the first time:
* Re-initialising the packet pools is unnecessary
* The case of a passed in fd (--fd) isn't relevant
* We don't even call this for pasta mode
* We will never re-call tap_sock_unix_init() because we never clear
fd_tap_listen
In fact the only thing we do in tap_sock_init() relevant to the reset case
is to remove the fd from the epoll and close it... which isn't used in the
first initialisation case.
So make a new tap_sock_reset() function just for this case, and simplify
tap_sock_init() slightly as being used only for the first time case.

When we receive packets from the tap side, we update the addr_seen fields
to reflect the last known address of the guest or ns. For ip4.addr_seen
we, sensibly, only update if the address we've just seen isn't 0 (0.0.0.0).
This case can occur during early DHCP transactions.
We have no equivalent case for IPv6. We're less likely to hit this,
because DHCPv6 uses link-local addresses, however we can see an source
address of :: with certain multicast operations. This can bite us if we
try to make an incoming connection very early after starting pasta with
--config-net: we may have only seen some of those multicast packets,
updated addr_seen to :: and not had any "real" packets to update it to a

not something we're doing).
I have no idea why that would be happening; but I'm guessing it has to be
a bug in the cpp implementation in that cppcheck version. In any case,
it's possible to work around this by moving the include of <unistd.h>

In passt mode, when writing frames to the qemu socket, we might get a short

* We only attempt to resend once: although it's unlikely in practice,
nothing prevents the blocking send() from also being short
* We print a debug error if send() returns non-zero.. but send() returns
the number of bytes sent, so we actually want it to return the length

length descriptor in one recv() call, or if we receive a partial one
at the end of one call, we currently disregard the rest, which would
make the stream inconsistent.
Nothing really bad happens, except that from that point on we would
