Alexander Aring 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.
