NFS: handle interface identifiers in incoming IPv6 addresses
Add support in the kernel NFS client's address parser for interface identifiers. IPv6 link-local addresses require an additional "interface identifier", which is a network device name or an integer that indexes the array of local network interfaces. They are suffixed to the address with a '%'. For example: fe80::215:c5ff:fe3b:e1b2%2 indicates an interface index of 2. Or fe80::215:c5ff:fe3b:e1b2%eth0 indicates that requests should be routed through the eth0 device. Without the interface ID, link-local addresses are not usable for NFS. Both the kernel NFS client mount option parser and the mount.nfs command can take either form. The mount.nfs command always passes the address through getnameinfo(3), which usually re-writes interface indices as device names.
