  Modified files:
    sys/net              if_ethersubr.c 
    sys/netinet          ip_dummynet.c ip_dummynet.h 
  Log:
  Add ipfw hooks to ether_demux() and ether_output_frame().
  Ipfw processing of frames at layer 2 can be enabled by the sysctl variable
  
          net.link.ether.ipfw=1
  
  Consider this feature experimental, because right now, the firewall
  is invoked in the places indicated below, and controlled by the
  sysctl variables listed on the right.  As a consequence, a packet
  can be filtered from 1 to 4 times depending on the path it follows,
  which might make a ruleset a bit hard to follow.
  
  I will add an ipfw option to tell if we want a given rule to apply
  to ether_demux() and ether_output_frame(), but we have run out of
  flags in the struct ip_fw so i need to think a bit on how to implement
  this.
