Check for carrier before sendto() or write() on interface fd.

Linux will quietly proceed as if the data were sent even if the carrier
is down and nothing actually happened.  There is still a tiny race
condition where the carrier could drop between the check and the actual
write, but we really can't do anything about that and it is a very
small race.
