eth-multiplexer: Generate stable ethernet addresses.
Previously, the ethernet multiplexer generated ethernet addresses for
the virtual interfaces using a pseudo-random number generator. This
has the downside of generating a new address every time. Generate
stable pseudo-random addresses instead.
* eth-multiplexer/Makefile (HURDLIBS): Link to libihash.
* eth-multiplexer/ethernet.c (ether_address): New variable.
(get_ethernet_address): New function.
(ethernet_open): Get the ethernet address of the real interface.
* eth-multiplexer/ethernet.h (ether_address): New declaration.
* eth-multiplexer/vdev.c (add_vdev): Compute the ethernet address by
hashing the address of the real interface with the name of the virtual
interface.
