This should clear up some of the confusion with random number
generators and drivers that obtain entropy from the hardware. Also,
many hardware number generators have limited bandwidth, so it's natural
for their output to be only used for seeding a random number generator.

In many networking tests we had to configure SLIP in the prj.conf
leaving those configurations Qemu specific. This change enables SLIP for
QEMU targets automatically and allows reuse of prj.conf for multiple
boards.
Additionally, the TUN options is removed. This option was not used
anywhere.
To enable self-contained networking tests that do not depend on SLIP, we
introduce the new option NET_TEST which disables TAP and allows testing
in QEMU without the need for a host interface.

There have been long lasting confusion between net_buf and net_nbuf.
While the first is actually a buffer, the second one is not. It's a
network buffer descriptor. More precisely it provides meta data about a
network packet, and holds the chain of buffer fragments made of net_buf.
Thus renaming net_nbuf to net_pkt and all names around it as well
(function, Kconfig option, ..).
Though net_pkt if the new name, it still inherit its logic from net_buf.
'
This patch is the first of a serie that will separate completely net_pkt
from net_buf.

When we setup the network interface, add predefined IPv6 multicast
groups into the network interface. When interface is taken down,
then leave all the multicast groups that joined.
See RFC 4291 ch 2.8 for details.

If we receive lot of packets, it might happen that we exhaust
all the DATA buffers in the system. This would prevent from
us sending anything to the network.
Change this by splitting the DATA buffer pool into RX and TX
parts. This way RX flooding cannot consume all DATA buffers
that needs to be sent.
