tipc: Introduce Communcation Group feature

With this commit series we introduce a 'Group Communication' feature in
order to resolve the datagram and multicast flow control problem. This
new feature makes it possible for a user to instantiate multiple private
virtual brokerless message buses by just creating and joining member
sockets.

The main features are as follows:
---------------------------------
- Sockets can join a group via a new setsockopt() call TIPC_GROUP_JOIN.
  If it is the first socket of the group this implies creation of the
  group. This call takes four parameters: 'type' serves as group
  identifier, 'instance' serves as member identifier, and 'scope'
  indicates the visibility of the group (node/cluster/zone). Finally,
  'flags' indicates different options for the socket joining the group.
  For the time being, there are only two such flags: 1) 'LOOPBACK'
  indicates if the creator of the socket wants to receive a copy of
  broadcast or multicast messages it sends to the group, 2) EVENTS
  indicates if it wants to receive membership (JOINED/LEFT) events for
  the other members of the group.

- Groups are closed, i.e., sockets which have not joined a group will
  not be able to send messages to or receive messages from members of
  the group, and vice versa. A socket can only be member of one group
  at a time.

- There are four transmission modes.
  1: Unicast. The sender transmits a message using the port identity
     (node:port tuple) of the receiving socket.
  2: Anycast. The sender transmits a message using a port name (type:
     instance:scope) of one of the receiving sockets. If more than
     one member socket matches the given address a destination is
     selected according to a round-robin algorithm, but also considering
     the destination load (advertised window size) as an additional
     criteria.
  3: Multicast. The sender transmits a message using a port name
     (type:instance:scope) of one or more of the receiving sockets.
     All sockets in the group matching the given address will receive
     a copy of the message.
  4: Broadcast. The sender transmits a message using the primtive
     send(). All members of the group, irrespective of their member
     identity (instance) number receive a copy of the message.

- TIPC broadcast is used for carrying messages in mode 3 or 4 when
  this is deemed more efficient, i.e., depending on number of actual
  destinations.

- All transmission modes are flow controlled, so that messages never
  are dropped or rejected, just like we are used to from connection
  oriented communication. A special algorithm guarantees that this is
  true even for multipoint-to-point communication, i.e., at occasions
  where many source sockets may decide to send simultaneously towards
  the same  destination socket.

- Sequence order is always guaranteed, even between the different
  transmission modes.

- Member join/leave events are received in all other member sockets
  in guaranteed order. I.e., a 'JOINED' (an empty message with the OOB
  bit set) will always be received before the first data message from
  a new member, and a 'LEAVE' (like 'JOINED', but with EOR bit set) will
  always arrive after the last data message from a leaving member.

v2: Reordered variable declarations in descending length order, as per
    feedback from David Miller. This was done as far as permitted by the
    the initialization order.
