This adds filtering of multicast traffic to the set of interfaces. The
filtering works by marking one of the interfaces as "primary" (which is
just the first interface name that is supplied on the command line) and
filtering everything with an all-ones destination MAC address if it's
coming in on any interface that's not the primary one.
To handle interfaces going down, we actually supply all the ifindexes to
the BPF program, and also install a tracing hook that listens to ifdown
events and switches the logic to the next ifindex in the sequence if the
primary one goes down. This is a bit rudimentary but should at least
provide basic filtering.

This makes it easier to populate the global variables we'll need for
handling multicast, and also means we don't have to worry about keeping the
BPF object file around (since it'll be statically linked).

This is needed to be able to react to interfaces going down so we can
allow multicast on a secondary interface if the primary goes down. We don't
actually react to the event yet, just print it; handling this will be added
in a subsequent commit.

Add an example to filter looping packets on (for instance) a bond
interface, by recording the egress MAC+VLAN and dropping any packets that
come in on other (related) interfaces with the same MAC+VLAN.
