[PATCH FOR REVIEW] interface description (revised)

Hi,

Here is the revised implementation for the interface description
feature, based on feedback from src-all at .

Some limitations:
 * Not yet able to send announce through route socket.  I need to
figure out a proper way to do this, maybe a future feature;
 * 32-bit vs 64-bit API compatibility.  Since the kernel has to copy
in a string, is there a clean way to do this?  I think we will also
need to deal with similar issue with SIOCSIFNAME as well.

Cheers,
