Re: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH 1/6] alfred: Reduce MAX_PAYLOAD by the size of the UDP header

The len field in the UDP header is 16 bit long. It can therefore store a value of up to (2 ** 16 - 1). This value is currently used for MAX_PAYLOAD. But the UDP len field not only stores the payload length but also the udp header itself. Thus the length of MAX_PAYLOAD has to be reduced by the size of udphdr to make sure that the payload can still be sent.

Applied the whole series with the alternative wording for Patch 2.
