Log:
  Eliminate SIOCGIFADDR handling in bpf.
  
  Quoting 19 years bpf.4 manual from bpf-1.2a1:
  "
  (SIOCGIFADDR is obsolete under BSD systems.  SIOCGIFCONF should be
   used to query link-level addresses.)
  "
  * SIOCGIFADDR was not imported in NetBSD (bpf.c 1.36) and OpenBSD.
  * Last bits (e.g. manpage claiming SIOCGIFADDR exists) was cleaned
    from NetBSD via kern/21513 5 years ago,
    from OpenBSD via documentation/6352 5 years ago.
