607b0bd3f2 6lowpan: nhc: move iphc manipulation out of nhc
This patch moves the iphc setting of next header commpression bit inside
iphc functionality. Setting of IPHC bits should be happen at iphc.c file
only.

8911d7748c 6lowpan: cleanup lowpan_header_decompress
This patch changes the lowpan_header_decompress function by removing
inklayer related information from parameters. This is currently for
supporting short and extended address for iphc handling in 802154.
We don't support short address handling anyway right now, but there
exists already code for handling short addresses in
lowpan_header_decompress.

The address parameters are also changed to a void pointer, so 6LoWPAN
linklayer specific code can put complex structures as these parameters
and cast it again inside the generic code by evaluating linklayer type
before. The order is also changed by destination address at first and
then source address, which is the same like all others functions where
destination is always the first, memcpy, dev_hard_header,
lowpan_header_compress, etc.

This patch also moves the fetching of iphc values from 6LoWPAN linklayer
specific code into the generic branch.

92aa7c65d2 6lowpan: add generic nhc layer interface
This patch adds a generic next header compression layer interface. There
exists various methods to do a header compression after 6LoWPAN header
to save payload. This introduce a generic nhc header which allow a
simple adding of a new header compression format instead of a static
implementation inside the 6LoWPAN header compression and uncompression
function.
