[PATCH net-next] neighbour: add support for NUD_PERMANENT proxy entries

[Nicolas Escande <nico.escande@gmail.com>]

As discussesd in [0] proxy entries (which are more configuration than
runtime data) should stay when the link goes does down (carrier wise).
This is what happens for regular neighbour entries added manually.

So lets fix this by:
  - storing in the proxy entries the mdn_state (only NUD_PERMANENT for now)
  - not removing NUD_PERMANENT proxy entries on carrier down by adding a
    skip_perm arg to pneigh_ifdown_and_unlock() (same as how it's done in
    neigh_flush_dev() for regular non-proxy entries)
