So far, the recently added multicast optimizations did not support
a configuration where a bridge is on top of the soft-interface (e.g.
bat0).
Now the Linux bridge code is able to provide us with the missing bits:
Multicast Listeners: The bridge hands us a list of multicast listeners
it has detected behind the bridge which we will announce through the
mesh via the translation table, allowing other nodes to direct multicast
packets to these clients behind the bridge even with enabled multicast
optimizations.
Queriers: The bridge informs us whether there is a selected IGMP or
MLD querier behind the bridge or if there is no querier at all. In these
cases we need all according IPv4 or IPv6 multicast traffic directed to us.
These two parts together allow us to serve all multicast listeners with
IPv6 link-local multicast packets even when bridges are involved and
our multicast optimizations enabled.

Changes in v5:
* none
Changes in v4:
* none
Changes in v3:
* Removed "RFC" tag in title again: The stubs and new export are upstream
in net-next and therefore going to be included in 3.17
* Added some debug output:
* Two warning messages:
-> Old kernel version or no bridge IGMP/MLD snooping compiled
* New batman-adv log-level "mcast":
-> Logging mcast flag changes
(a third debugging facility, a new table for debugfs for a global
mcast flag overview will be added in a separate patch later
as discussed with Simon)
Changes in v2:
* fetching local (= on this same kernel) multicast listeners from
the bridge instead of the bat0 interface if a bridge is present
- just like ip addresses and routes should be used from br0, the
same goes for multicast listeners
* beautification of batadv_mcast_mla_br_addr_cpy(), now using already
present functions from the kernel instead of own, hackish approach
* changed names of some goto-labels (not using "skip" anymore)
* using new, third bridge multicast export (because this export is
not upstream yet, I've added the "RFC" in the title):
br_multicast_has_querier_anywhere()
* adding compat stubs for two bridge multicast exports, to make
batman-adv compile- and usable even if a 3.16 kernel was compiled
without bridge code - the stubs are supposed to be upstream in the
bridge code in 3.17 (therefore just 'compat')
* updated kerneldocs for batadv_mcast_mla_bridge_get() and
batadv_mcast_mla_softif_get()
* The two sentences in the commit message starting with "Queriers: ..."
were slightly modified to include the third bridge multicast export
