lldpcli: rename "unconfigure lldp custom-tlvs" to "unconfigure lldp custom-tlv"
There was a bit of confusion regarding this command.
It's documented as 'unconfigure lldp custom-tlv', when in fact it's
'unconfigure lldp custom-tlvs' (plural).
That's also my fault, since I did not update much (or take care about)
documentation.
It seems simpler to rename the command as is in the doc than change
the doc.

netlink: use netlink to retrieve bridge/bond/vlan information
On Linux, Netlink is more efficient to get this kind of information. Use
it all the time, unless we are configured to run on old kernels. In this
case, fallback to the previous functions.
An old kernel is now < 2.6.32 (RHEL 6, Ubuntu Lucid, Debian Squeeze).

lldpcli: get chassis atom to query chassis-related information
Don't rely on the previously introduced compatibility layer. There is no
plan to deprecate this layer, but as an example, we prefer to show how
stuff should be done.

lib: bump ABI
Due to the absence of compatibility layer, all atom-related functions
are considered incompatible since they don't work on ports like they
used too. This is not strictly an ABI incompatibility, but we consider
the change important enough to do like it was.
This commit will be reverted once the compatibility layer is here.

lib: ability to get and query local chassis
Up until now, to get information about the local chassis, we had to get
one interface and query the associated local port, then get chassis
information out of it.
With this change, a dedicated `lldpctl_get_local_chassis()` function is
provided and returns a chassis atom. All the chassis-related properties
are moved to this kind of atom. We also add a `lldpctl_k_port_chassis`
key to get the chassis associated to a port.
Left for next commits:
- lldpcli hasn't been updated
- compatibility layer to query chassis-related properties from port

osx: ensure pre/postinstall scripts are created correctly
Because we declare the scripts/*install target in `edit.am` and in
`Makefile.am`, only one of them is used. With automake, it doesn't seem
possible to easily extend a target. Instead, do the chmod just before we
need it.

It is not supported on older versions of gcc. Like the one in RHEL 5. It

When embedded, libevent is configured with `--disable-shared

Even when the tests succeed, on some platforms, hardening CFLAGS
fail. For example, this is the case on OpenWRT. It seems that the
executable needs to be linked to libssp. Difficult to test if the
problem only happens at runtime since we can execute anything.

frame: change checksum function
At the end of function, we used to call ntohs() but we also call the
same function before providing the checksum to POKE_UINT16 (which will
in turn call ntohs). We remove those two first extra calls as they
aren't necessary.
Moreover, the SNMP agent uses this function and this makes it
endian-dependant. We don't want that.
The function is quite convulated and isn't a classic checksum
function. I don't remember how I came with this function but since there
is the special case for Cisco devices and I know this special case work
now, I don't want to change to another function which may breaks this
special case.
Add a NEWS entry to let people know, just in case.

build: automatic detection of optional features
`./configure` can now detect optional features. This works with XML and
JSON output as well as for SNMP support. The defaults are still the
same, so a user has to pass `auto` keyword to the requested option (for
example `--with-json=auto`).
