Get rid of the RANDOM_IP_ID option and make it a sysctl. NetBSD
have already done this, so I have styled the patch on their work:
1) introduce a ip_newid() static inline function that checks
the sysctl and then decides if it should return a sequential
or random IP ID.
2) named the sysctl net.inet.ip.random_id
3) IPv6 flow IDs and fragment IDs are now always random.
Flow IDs and frag IDs are significantly less common in the
IPv6 world (ie. rarely generated per-packet), so there should
be smaller performance concerns.
The sysctl defaults to 0 (sequential IP IDs).
