In this patch we introduce the ability to get UDP specific bearer
options such as remoteip, remoteport, localip and localport.
After some discussions on tipc-discussion on how to handle media
specific options we agreed to pass them after the media.
For media generic bearer options we already do:
$ tipc bearer get OPTION media MEDIA name|device NAME|DEVICE
For the UDP media specific bearer options we introduce in this path:
$ tipc bearer get media udp name NAME OPTION
such as
$ tipc bearer get media udp name NAME remoteip
This allows bash-completion to tab complete only appropriate options,
it makes more logical sense and it scales better. Even though it might
look a little different to the user.
In order to use the existing option parsing framework to do this we
add a flag (OPT_KEY) to the option parsing function.
If the UDP bearer has multiple remoteip addresses associated with it
(replicast) we handle the TIPC_NLA_UDP_MULTI_REMOTEIP flag and send
a TIPC_NL_UDP_GET_REMOTEIP query transparently to the user.

Introduce the ability to add remote IP addresses to an existing UDP
bearer. On the kernel side, adding a "remoteip" to an existing bearer
puts the bearer in "replicast" mode where TIPC multicast messages are
send out to each configured remoteip using unicast. This is required
for TIPC UDP bearers to work in environments where IP multicast is
disabled.

This enables a user to remove an offline peer from the kernel data
structures. This could for example be useful when deliberately scaling
in peer nodes in a cloud environment.
This functionality was first merged in:
f9dec657e4 (Richard Alpe tipc: add peer remove functionality)
And later backed out (as the kernel counterpart was held up) in:
385caeb13b (Stephen Hemminger Revert "tipc: add peer remove functionality")

Local ip is not required to identify a UDP bearer and shouldn't be
passed to bearer disable, set or get. In this patch we remove the
localip entry from the synopsis of these functions.

This patch adds man pages for the TIPC tool. There is one main page
and one page for each top level sub-command. These pages mainly aims
to help a user of the tipc tool. In addition to this they describe
a bit about what TIPC is and some of its features as a protocol.
