[NET_BATCH] net core use batching

This patch adds the usage of batching within the core.
Performance results demonstrating improvement are provided separately.

I have #if-0ed some of the old functions so the patch is more readable.
A future patch will remove all if-0ed content.
Patrick McHardy eyeballed a bug that will cause re-ordering in case
of a requeue.
