[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH] batctl: tcpdump - Add support for bla loopdetect

[Sven Eckelmann]

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven.eckelmann@open-mesh.com>

Complex bridge loop detection was added to batman-adv. It uses so called
BLA LOOPDETECT ARP packets to find out if there is a loop. The bla2 claim
function of tcpdump extracts the same information which also
batadv_bla_send_claim uses for its debug output.
