syzbot reported that ip6_finish_output2() could pass tbl and dev
from different netns to neigh_create().

When namespacifying neigh_table, I chose to resolve neigh_table
in callers to minimise changes, but it turned out to be error-prone.

This series adds IPv4/IPv6-specific helpers for neigh_lookup()
and neigh_create() that always fetch the netns from dev to fix
the problem.

Along the way, the confusing and now mostly redundant helpers
__neigh_lookup() and __neigh_lookup_errno() are converted and
removed.
