Between Busybox 1.24.2 and 1.25.0 the bb_info_msg() function was
eliminated and calls to it changed to be bb_error_msg(). The downside of
this is that daemons now log all messages to syslog at the LOG_ERR level
which makes it hard to filter errors from informational messages.
This change optionally re-introduces bb_info_msg(), controlled by a new
option FEATURE_SYSLOG_INFO, restores all the calls to bb_info_msg() that
were removed (only in applets that set logmode to LOGMODE_SYSLOG or
LOGMODE_BOTH), and also changes informational messages in ifplugd and
ntpd.
The code size change of this is as follows (using 'defconfig' on x86_64
with gcc 7.3.0-27ubuntu1~18.04)
function old new delta
bb_info_msg - 182 +182
bb_vinfo_msg - 27 +27
static.log7 194 198 +4
log8 190 191 +1

crondlog 45 - -45

If you don't care about everything being logged at LOG_ERR level
then when FEATURE_SYSLOG_INFO is disabled Busybox actually gets smaller:
function old new delta
static.log7 194 200 +6
log8 190 193 +3
log5 190 193 +3
syslog_level 1 - -1
bb_verror_msg 583 581 -2
crondlog 45 - -45

I see random field values like sll_hatype=0x267 when I strace.
They seem to not matter, but just in case they sometimes do,
let's at least have deterministic values (via memset(0)).

Patch is based on work by tiggerswelt.net. They say:
"
We wanted udhcpc6 to release its IPv6-Addresses on
quit (-R-commandline-option) which turned out to generate once again
kind of garbage on the network-link.
We tracked this down to two issues:
- udhcpc6 uses a variable called "srv6_buf" to send packets to
the dhcp6-server, but this variable is never initialized correctly
and contained kind of a garbage-address
- The address of the dhcp6-server is usually a link-local-address,
that requires an interface-index when using connect() on an AF_INET6-
socket
We added an
additional parameter for ifindex to d6_send_kernel_packet() and made
d6_recv_raw_packet() to capture the address of the dhcp6-server and
forward it to its callee.
"
Three last patches together:
