This series introduces iov_tail to convey frame information
between functions.

This is only an API change, for the moment the memory pool
is only able to store contiguous buffer, so, except for
vhost-user in a special case, we only play with iovec array
with only one entry.

v6:
    - Replaced iov_slice() with the clearer iov_tail_clone()
      for creating iovec subsets.
    - Standardized local header variable names (to *_storage suffix).
    - Renamed functions for better semantics (e.g., ignore_arp to
      accept_arp, packet_data to packet_get).
    - Corrected OPTLEN_MAX definition in TCP.
    - Addressed minor logic issues (e.g., DHCPv6 FQDN flags, NDP null check).
    - Updated ipv6_l4hdr() return type to boolean.
    - Improved comments and documentation across several modules.

v5:
    - store in the pool iovec array with several entries

v4:
  Prepare to introduce iovec array in the pool:
    - passe iov_tail rather than pool to ndp,icmp, dhcp, dhcpv6 and arp
    - remove unused pool macros
    - add memory regions in the pool structure, this will allow us to use
      the buf pointer to store the iovec array for vhost-user

v3:
  Address comments from David

Laurent Vivier (30):
