If ipforward consumes all the IOB, devif_poll will not poll any more. Without polling, ipforward will not release any IOB, then all the network stack may fail with no IOB available.

Add basic functions for NAT (NAPT), remaining some logic unimplemented (UDP, ICMP, port assignment, etc). NAT for TCP can work now (unless port conflicts).
Outbound: LAN -> Forward -> NAT(only if targeting at WAN) -> WAN
Inbound: WAN -> NAT(only from WAN, change dest) -> Forward -> LAN

f_domain is used to determine protocol family when CONFIG_NET_IPv4 and CONFIG_NET_IPv6 are both defined, but not correctly used in ipv4_dev_forward because of typo (there's not a config named CONFIG_NET_IPv5) which may cause IPv4 packets to be forwarded as IPv6.

In case of enabled packet forwarding mode, packets were forwarded in a reverse order
because of LIFO behavior of the connection event list.
The issue exposed only during high network traffic. Thus the event list started to grow
that resulted in changing the order of packets inside of groups of several packets
like the following: 3, 2, 1, 6, 5, 4, 8, 7 etc.
Remarks concerning the connection event list implementation:
* Now the queue (list) is FIFO as it should be.
* The list is singly linked.
* The list has a head pointer (inside of outer net_driver_s structure),
and a tail pointer is added into outer net_driver_s structure.
* The list item is devif_callback_s structure.
It still has two pointers to two different list chains (*nxtconn and *nxtdev).
* As before the first argument (*dev) of the list functions can be NULL,
while the other argument (*list) is effective (not NULL).
* An extra (*tail) argument is added to devif_callback_alloc()
and devif_conn_callback_free() functions.
* devif_callback_alloc() time complexity is O(1) (i.e. O(n) to fill the whole list).
* devif_callback_free() time complexity is O(n) (i.e. O(n^2) to empty the whole list).
* devif_conn_event() time complexity is O(n).
* Simplify EINTR/ECANCEL error handling
1. Add semaphore uninterruptible wait function
2 .Replace semaphore wait loop with a single uninterruptible wait
3. Replace all sem_xxx to nxsem_xxx
* Unify the void cast usage
1. Remove void cast for function because many place ignore the returned value witout cast
2. Replace void cast for variable with UNUSED macro
1. For buffered tcp/udp case, if CONFIG_NET_ARP_SEND/CONFIG_NET_ARP_IPIN/CONFIG_NET_ICMPv6_NEIGHBOR isn't enabled and the table doesn't contain ip<->ethaddr mapping yet, the logic will skip the realtransmission and then arp/neighbor can't steal the final buffer to generate arp/icmpv6 packet.
2.for all other case, the tcp layer or user program should already contain the retransmit logic, the check is redundancy and may generate many duplicated packets if arp/icmpv6 response is too slow because the cursor stop forward. If user still concern about the very first packet lost, he could fix the issue by enabling CONFIG_NET_ARP_SEND/CONFIG_NET_ICMPv6_NEIGHBOR at begin.
Iobinstrumentation
* mm/iob: Introduces producer/consumer id to every iob call. This is so that the calls can be instrumented to monitor the IOB resources.
* iob instrumentation - Merges producer/consumer enumeration for simpler IOB user.
* fs/procfs: Starts adding support for /proc/iobinfo
* fs/procfs: Finishes first pass of simple IOB user stastics and /proc/iobinfo entry

net/ipforward: Check if interface is up early on when forwarding to avoid extra work.
As noticed in a previous wireless commit, when forwarding is enabled and a packet comes in, the packet is attempted to be sent on each other netdev without regard for whether it is in the UP state. Of course this is eventually caught, but it can be caught earlier to avoid unnecessary work, especially in the 6LoWPAN case where a useless packet conversion will occur.

This makes the user interface a little hostile. People thing of an MTU of 1500 bytes, but the corresponding packet is really 1514 bytes (including the 14 byte Ethernet header). A more friendly solution would configure the MTU (as before), but then derive the packet buffer size by adding the MAC header length. Instead, we define the packet buffer size then derive the MTU.
The MTU is not common currency in networking. On the wire, the only real issue is the MSS which is derived from MTU by subtracting the IP header and TCP header sizes (for the case of TCP). Now it is derived for the PKTSIZE by subtracting the IP header, the TCP header, and the MAC header sizes. So we should be all good and without the recurring 14 byte error in MTU's and MSS's.
Squashed commit of the following:
Trivial update to fix some spacing issues.
net/: Rename several macros containing _MTU to _PKTSIZE.
net/: Rename CONFIG_NET_SLIP_MTU to CONFIG_NET_SLIP_PKTSIZE and similarly for CONFIG_NET_TUN_MTU. These are not the MTU which does not include the size of the link layer header. These are the full size of the packet buffer memory (minus any GUARD bytes).
net/: Rename CONFIG_NET_6LOWPAN_MTU to CONFIG_NET_6LOWPAN_PKTSIZE and similarly for CONFIG_NET_TUN_MTU. These are not the MTU which does not include the size of the link layer header. These are the full size of the packet buffer memory (minus any GUARD bytes).
net/: Rename CONFIG_NET_ETH_MTU to CONFIG_NET_ETH_PKTSIZE. This is not the MTU which does not include the size of the link layer header. This is the full size of the packet buffer memory (minus any GUARD bytes).
net/: Rename the file d_mtu in the network driver structure to d_pktsize. That value saved there is not the MTU. The packetsize is the memory large enough to hold the maximum packet PLUS the size of the link layer header. The MTU does not include the link layer header.
ieee802154: Simplifies notify() and rxframe() calls to a single notify() call. dataind's and all other "notifs" are now "primitives" which aligns with standard terminology
* mac802154: Adds missing breaks from case statement
* sixlowpan: Fixes bad logic where ACK is not requested if address is not a broadcast
* ieee802154: Simplification of "notifs" and "datainds" to generic primitives passed via a single notify call to the layer above the MAC
* Directories.mk should reference CONFIG_WIRELESS instead of CONFIG_DRIVERS_WIRELESS
* xbee_netdev: Network must be locked when calling sixlowpan_input
* sixlowpan: Reassembly buffer can't be freed if provided by radio driver
* sixlowpan: Don't free IOB if there is an error processing it as the MAC will try to pass it along to another receiver
* ieee802154: Adds basic logging to ieee802154_primitive.c
* Minor fixes after rebase
* xbee: Adds AT query timeout to retry if XBee doesn't respond to request
* same70-xplained: Adds Xbee support. Makes mikroBus slot Kconfig 'choice'
* mac802154: Removes unused function declaration
* drivers/mrf24j40: Fixes compilation error using . operator rather than -> operator
* mac802154_device: Changes a few mac802154_primtive_free's to ieee802154_primitive_free() and changes notif to primitive in a couple places.
* mac802154: Adds promiscous mode logic to bypass parsing of incoming frames. MAC char device also checks for promiscous mode and passes whole frames including header and FCS to the application if promiscous mode is enabled.
* sixlowpan: Fixes logic to correctly check if packet is large enough to include header. This would cause packets to be considered too small when they are sufficiently sized.
* sixlowpan: Fixes forwarding logic to use forwarding device rather than received device to look up destination link layer address
* net/ipforward: Fixes typo that caused build error when IP forwarding was enabled with CONFIG_NET_ICMPv6_NEIGHBOR enabled as well.
* configs/same70-xplained: Simple spelling fix
