  Modified files:
    sys/net              if_vlan.c 
  Log:
  Set IFF_BROADCAST and IFF_MULTICAST on vlan interfaces from the
  beginning and simply refuse to attach to a parent without either
  flag.
  
  Our network stack cannot handle well IFF_BROADCAST or IFF_MULTICAST
  on an interface changing on the fly.  E.g., IP will or won't assign
  a broadcast address to an interface and join the all-hosts multicast
  group on it depending on its IFF_BROADCAST and IFF_MULTICAST settings.
  Should the flags alter later, IP will miss the change and keep using
  bogus settings.  This can lead to evil things like supplying an
  invalid broadcast address or trying to leave a multicast group that
  hasn't been joined.  So just avoid touching the flags since an
  interface was created.  This has no practical purpose.
