This set tries to summarize the recent discussion of making ifindices friendly
to checkpoint-restore and consists of:
1. Prepare hash function to non-unique ifindices
2. Allow for specifying the desired ifindex on net link creation
3. Make ifindex generation per-net
4. Simplify loopback device ifindex access
