464XLAT (CLAT) and SIIT-DC (ER) network architecture support

The clatd script makes it easy to set up packet translation between IPv6 and IPv4 networks.

Supported deployment models include:

  - IPv6-only/IPv6-mostly LANs (RFCs pending),
  - ISPs using 464XLAT (RFC 6877) and
  - Data centers using SIIT-DC (RFC 7755).

An RFC for the LAN deployment is currently in the works, see "6mops" IETF draft.

When used on a LAN it is currently advisable to run clatd (or another CLAT implementation) on all end-user computers. While the DNS64 (RFC 6147) mechanism can help to make this less necessary and instead rely on the network-wide NAT64 (RFC 6146) translation service this is considered at best a transitory hack. Even if DNS64 is technically acceptable it is challanging because some applications may use "address literals" directly instead of relying on DNS to resolve names to addressess.
