James Clarke 518fb3ba19 udp_io, traceroute: Standardise IPv6 PKTINFO handling to be portable
The current standard (RFC 3542) is for IPV6_RECVPKTINFO to be given to
setsockopt, and IPV6_PKTINFO to be used as the packet type. Previously,
RFC 2292 required IPV6_PKTINFO to be used for both, but RFC 3542
re-purposed IPV6_PKTINFO when given to setsockopt. The special
Linux-specific IPV6_2292PKTINFO has the same semantics as IPV6_PKTINFO
in RFC 2292, but was introduced at the same time as IPV6_RECVPKTINFO.

Therefore, if we have IPV6_RECVPKTINFO available, we can use the RFC
3542 style, and if not, we assume that only the RFC 2292 API is
available, using IPV6_PKTINFO for both.

libbb is BusyBox's utility library.  All of this stuff used to be stuffed into
a single file named utility.c.  When I split utility.c to create libbb, some of
the very oldest stuff ended up without their original copyright and licensing
information (which is now lost in the mists of time).  If you see something
that you wrote that is mis-attributed, do let me know so we can fix that up.
