batman-adv: Drop per algo GW section class code

This code was only used in the past for the sysfs interface. But since
this was replace with netlink, it was never executed. The function pointer
was only checked to figure out whether the limit 255 (B.A.T.M.A.N. IV) or
2**32-1 (B.A.T.M.A.N. V) should be used as limit.

So instead of keeping the function pointer, just store the limits directly
in struct batadv_algo_gw_ops.

Prepare TVLV infrastructure for more packet types, in particular the
upcoming batman-adv multicast packet type.

For that swap the OGM vs. unicast-tvlv packet boolean indicator to an
explicit unsigned integer packet type variable. And provide the skb
to a call to batadv_tvlv_containers_process(), as later the multicast
packet's TVLV handler will need to have access not only to the TVLV but
the full skb for forwarding. Forwarding will be invoked from the
multicast packet's TVLVs' contents later.

batman-adv: Drop publication years from copyright info

The batman-adv source code was using the year of publication (to net-next)
as "last" year for the copyright statement. The whole source code mentioned
in the MAINTAINERS "BATMAN ADVANCED" section was handled as a single entity
regarding the publishing year.

This avoided having outdated (in sense of year information - not copyright
holder) publishing information inside several files. But since the simple
"update copyright year" commit (without other changes) in the file was not
well received in the upstream kernel, the option to not have a copyright
year (for initial and last publication) in the files are chosen instead.
More detailed information about the years can still be retrieved from the
SCM system.

batman-adv: Add gateway mesh genl configuration

The mesh/soft-interface can optimize the handling of DHCP packets. Instead
of flooding them through the whole mesh, it can be forwarded as unicast to
a specific gateway server. The originator which injects the packets in the
mesh has to select (based on sel_class thresholds) a responsible gateway
server. This is done by switching this originator to the gw_mode client.
The servers announce their forwarding bandwidth (download/upload) when the
gw_mode server was selected.

The BATADV_CMD_SET_MESH/BATADV_CMD_GET_MESH commands allow to set/get the
configuration of this feature using the attributes:

* u8 BATADV_ATTR_GW_MODE (0 == off, 1 == client, 2 == server)
* u32 BATADV_ATTR_GW_BANDWIDTH_DOWN (in 100 kbit/s steps)
* u32 BATADV_ATTR_GW_BANDWIDTH_UP (in 100 kbit/s steps)
* u32 BATADV_ATTR_GW_SEL_CLASS

batman-adv: Initialize gw sel_class via batadv_algo

The gateway selection class variable is shared between different algorithm
versions. But the interpretation of the content is algorithm specific. The
initialization is therefore also algorithm specific.

But this was implemented incorrectly and the initialization for BATMAN_V
always overwrote the value previously written for BATMAN_IV. This could
only be avoided when BATMAN_V was disabled during compile time.

Using a special batadv_algo hook for this initialization avoids this
problem.
