resolv for the nameserver (Do not loop).

MAC addresses are sometimes stored at unusual places. This
patch makes it possible to give a MAC address to a ethernet
device id. This is independent of the device actually being
present.

This is not yet used, but with this the different network
commands can get rid of their global data.

The idea is to panic() when there is no memory available for normal
operation. Exception: code which can consume arbitrary amount of RAM
(example: files allocated in ramfs) must report error instead of panic().
This patch also fixes code which didn't check for NULL from malloc() etc.
Usage: malloc(), memalign() return NULL when out of RAM.
xmalloc(), xmemalign() always return non-NULL or panic().

Change device parameters so that the memory management is in generic
code. This also removes the need of storing statically initialized
parameters as they are stored in a struct list_head for each device.

The old network stack has some bad limitations:
- network commands are required to call NetLoop() which only returns when
the network layer wants to. Instead we now use a net_poll() function which
returns after handling one packet (or immediately if no packet is
available).
- There can be only one packet handler which makes it impossible to handle
multiple connections
- CamelCaseMakesItHardToRead
The new network stack is implemented as a parallel universe. Currently all
commands still use the old stack. They are converted in subsequent patches.

We used to eth_open/eth_halt the network devices during NetLoopInit
which is called whenever the user enters a network command.
Change this behaviour so that the current network device gets opened
when making it the current one.
With this change it's always possible to send packages and we are able
to implement a new network stack in the next step.

Instead of having a big switch/case for every protocol, do
the right things in the individual functions before callong
NetLoop().

Use a pointer to an ip address instead of the return value in string_to_ip
and use the return value for error indication only. 0.0.0.0 can be a valid
ip address
