Add additional checks to the port number parsing in str2ep to validate
the port number supplied in the string. This only verifies that the port
number is no longer than 5 chars and the resulting number fits in a
uint16_t.
It is still possible to supply up to 5 random chars.
URLs without a path were treated as invalid, while according to the URL
specification they are valid
Also fixes a missing null terminator in the returned path
On a NETOPT_STATE set call with NETOPT_STATE_RESET the netdev device
resets the callback event flags. This requires that after the netdev
device resets, the network stack also reapplies these callback event
flags
This change is a gnrc_ipv6_nib/gnrc_netif(2)-based rework of #7210.
Packet duplication
==================
Its main optimization is that it restructures `gnrc_ipv6` handling of
sent packets so that duplication for write-protection happens at the
latest possible step:
* potential `gnrc_netif` headers added by upper layers are
write-protected before their removal
* This unifies the duplication of the IPv6 header directly after
that
* Extension headers in-between the IPv6 header and the payload header
are duplicated just before the check sum is duplicated
Especially the last point allows for only handing a single packet snip
to all lower functions instead of an already searched IPv6 header
(which now is always the first until it is handed to the interface) +
payload header.
Further clean-ups
=================
* Next-hop link-layer address determination was moved to the
`_send_unicast` function, greatly simplifying the unicast case in the
`_send` function
* Code for loopback case was added to a new function `_send_to_self`
* Removed some code duplication
While refactoring IPHC I noticed that the page actually can already be
used for fragmentation: Given @cgundogan's work on [ICN LoWPAN] we can
already assume, that the page context may (among other thing) determine
the type of the reassembled packet. This PR provides the basis for
that.

While the current approach for garbage collection in the 6Lo reassembly
buffer is good for best-effort handling of
*fragmented* packets and nicely RAM saving, it has the problem that
incomplete, huge datagrams can basically DoS a node, if no further
fragmented datagram is received for a while (since the packet buffer is
full and GC is not triggered).
This change adds a asynchronous GC (utilizing the existing
functionality) to the reassembly buffer, so that even if there is no new
fragmented packet received, fragments older than `RBUF_TIMEOUT` will be
removed from the reassembly buffer, freeing up the otherwise wasted
packet buffer space.
Since IPHC also manipulates the total number of bytes of a received
datagram (by decompressing it), this also needs to be exposed. I guess
I was too focused on introducing a *generic* packet buffer for a future
virtual reassembly buffer (where it isn't needed, but so isn't `pkt` to
be honest), that I totally forgot about it in #9352.
This fixes an alignment issue I encountered in the static version of
the packet buffer.
The bug is caused by a race-condition where a certain order of
operations leads to a chunk being released according to the
byte-alignment of the platform, but overlapping potential space for
a future `_unused_t` struct e.g. (x mark allocated regions):
Future leak of size sizeof(_unused_t) Time

Sadly, I wasn't able to create a reproducable unittest that show-cases
this corner-case, since I don't understand the order of operations that
cause this one 100%, but the bug is reproducable (but also not
reliably) by sending large (i.e. fragmented) packets to a 6Lo-enabled
host from more than 1 host simultaneously (use `gnrc_pktbuf_cmd` to
check).
By making the size of `_unused_t` the only condition for alignment,
this bug is fixed.
