When tincd setups it's network device some operating systems send router
solicitation packets from local scope ip addresses. tincd forwards it
then to his neighbors then those nodes follow the same routine fowarding it
to the next hops. I may happen that an loop will occur consuming large amount
of bandwith. Constrains: Mode = Router, Broadcast = mst.
Reproduction: ping6 -c 1 ff02::2%<tincd interface>
Sending one packet will, depending on your setup, generate about 3k packets.
Proposed solution in this commit: enable StrictSubnets, tincd will reject such
packets due to unknown subnet.
Future work: check scope of the ip address and make decisions about forwarding
based on Mode tincd is configured to work.
For some reason the edges ware removed in one direction resulting in e->reverse
point into invalid memory.
Do not insert edge into edge_weight_tree if not needed.
If ADD_EDGE came from tinc version 1.0.x local_address.sa.sa_family is set to 0.
If it came from tinc version 1.1.x forwarded for older verion it will be 255 - AF_UNKNOWN.
When tinc gets ADD_EDGE from older versions it will allocate
new edge in protocol_edge.c:189 due to missed case in lines 149-171 where
local_address is not defined.

The proper place to clean up resources of objects is in their
destructor. This makes sure proper cleanup when edge_del() is called as
well. At exit, free_edge() is called on all edges by free_edge_tree(),
which is called by exit_nodes().
Let configure include sys/if_tun.h when testing for netinet/if_ether.h
to detect the Kernel/libc header conflict on musl.
After this patch, configure will correctly detect netinet/if_ether.h as
unusable and the subsequent compilation will not attempt to use it.
