We may have a similar linklocal next hop (same ip, same mac) on 2 different interfaces. In order to support scoped linklocal addresses, we encode the interface id in the second nibble of the ipv6 address: "fe80::209:c000:17e:f6b on interface id 1" becomes "fe80:100::209:c000:17e:f6b".

Do not expose the internal encoding of the interface in the link local address. Signed-off-by: Christophe Fontaine <[email protected]>

I'll update the API to allow the client to specify the interface. |

First try to implement scoped link local addresses.
Still has some issues:
This link local address doesn't exist in the FIB, but fe80:100::4e77:6dff:fe7d:1cc7 and fe80:300::4e77:6dff:fe7d:1cc7 are present internally.
