By adding batadv_send_skb_to_orig() in send.c, we can remove duplicate
code that looks up the next hop and then calls batadv_send_skb_packet().
Furthermore, this prepares the upcoming new implementation of
fragmentation, which requires the next hop to route packets.
Please note that this doesn't entirely remove the next-hop lookup in
routing.c and unicast.c, since it is used by the current fragmentation
code.
Also note that the next-hop info is removed from debug messages in
translation-table.c, since it is looked up elsewhere.

when multiple gateways exist. The chosen gateway isn't marked in the list and
therefore the user cannot easily debug the situation when there is a problem
with the currently used gateway.

Flags carried by a change_entry have to be always copied into the
client entry as they may contain important attributes (e.g.
TT_CLIENT_WIFI).
For instance, a client added by means of the "early detection
mechanism" has no flag set at the beginning, so they must be updated once the
proper ADD event is received.

This patch allows clients to roam multiple times within the same
originator-interval.
To enable this new feature two key aspects that have been introduced:
1) packets are always directed to the node that was originally
serving the roamed client which will then re-route the data
to the correct destination at any point in time;
2) the client flags handling mechanism has been properly modified
in order to allow multiple roamings withinin the same orig-int.
Therefore flags are now set properly even in this scenario.

tt_poss_change is a node-wide flag which tells whether the node is in a roaming
state (a client recently moved to/away from it) in order to let it apply special
re-routing rules. However this flag does not give a clear idea of the current
state because it is not possible to understand *which client* is actually
involved in the roaming. For this reason a better approach has been chosen:
instead of using a node-wide variable, the roaming state is now given by a
per-tt_entry ROAM flag which, in case of packet coming through the node, tells
the node whether the real destination is in roaming state or not.
With this flag change, batadv_check_unicast_ttvn() has also been rearranged in
order to better fit the new re-routing logic and to be much more readable.

in case of client roaming a new global entry is added while a corresponding
local one is still present. In this case the node can safely pass the WIFI flag
from the local to the global entry.
This change is required to let the AP-isolation correctly working in case of
roaming: if a generic WIFI client C roams from node A to B, A adds a global
entry for C without adding any WIFI flag. The latter will be set only later,
once A has received C's advertisement from B. In this time period the
AP-Isolation (if enabled) would not correctly work since C is not marked as
WIFI, so allowing it to communicate with other WIFI clients.

in case of a new global entry added because of roaming, the roam_at field must
be properly initiated with the current time. This value will be later use to

With the current TT mechanism a new client joining the network is not
immediately able to communicate with other hosts because its MAC address has not
been announced yet. This situation holds until the first OGM containing its
joining event will be spread over the mesh network.
This behaviour can be acceptable in networks where the originator interval is a
small value (e.g. 1sec) but if that value is set to an higher time (e.g. 5secs)
the client could suffer from several malfunctions like DHCP client timeouts,
etc.
This patch adds an early detection mechanism that makes nodes in the network
able to recognise "not yet announced clients" by means of the broadcast packets
they emitted on connection (e.g. ARP or DHCP request). The added client will
then be confirmed upon receiving the OGM claiming it or purged if such OGM
is not received within a fixed amount of time.

During an OGM-interval (time between two different OGM sendings) the same client
could roam away and then roam back to us. In this case the node would add two
events to the events list (that is going to be sent appended to the next OGM). A
DEL one and an ADD one. Obviously they will only increase the overhead (either in
the air and on the receiver side) and eventually trigger wrong states/events
without producing any real effect.
For this reason we can safely delete any ADD event with its related DEL one.

bug introduced with cea194d90b11aff7fc289149e4c7f305fad3535a
In the current TT code, when a TT_Response containing a full table is received
from an originator, first the node purges all the clients for that originator in
the global translation-table and then merges the newly received table.
During the purging phase each client deletion is done by means of a call_rcu()
invocation and at the end of this phase the global entry counter for that
originator is set to 0. However the invoked rcu function decreases the global
entry counter for that originator by one too and since the rcu invocation is
likely to be postponed, the node will end up in first setting the counter to 0
and then decreasing it one by one for each deleted client.
This bug leads to having a wrong global entry counter for the related node, say
X. Then when the node with the broken counter will answer to a TT_REQUEST on
behalf of node X, it will create faulty TT_RESPONSE that will generate an
unrecoverable situation on the node that asked for the full table recover.
The non-recoverability is given by the fact that the node with the broken
counter will keep answering on behalf of X because its knowledge about X's state
(ttvn + tt_crc) is correct.
To solve this problem the counter is not explicitly set to 0 anymore and the
counter decrement is performed right before the invocation of call_rcu().
