In the package guidelines, PKG_VERSION is supposed to be used as
"The upstream version number that we're downloading", while
PKG_RELEASE is referred to as "The version of this package Makefile".
Thus, the variables in a strict interpretation provide a clear
distinction between "their" (upstream) version in PKG_VERSION and
"our" (local OpenWrt trunk) version in PKG_RELEASE.
For local (OpenWrt-only) packages, this implies that those will only
need PKG_RELEASE defined, while PKG_VERSION does not apply following
a strict interpretation. While the majority of "our" packages actually
follow that scheme, there are also some that mix both variables or
have one of them defined but keep them at "1".
This is misleading and confusing, which can be observed by the fact
that there typically either one of the variables is never bumped or
the choice of the variable to increase depends on the person doing the
change.
Consequently, this patch aims at clarifying the situation by
consistently using only PKG_RELEASE for "our" packages. To achieve
that, PKG_VERSION is removed there, bumping PKG_RELEASE where
necessary to ensure the resulting package version string is bigger
than before.
During adjustment, one has to make sure that the new resulting composite
package version will not be considered "older" than the previous one.
A useful tool for evaluating that is 'opkg compare-versions'. In
principle, there are the following cases:
1. Sole PKG_VERSION replaced by sole PKG_RELEASE:
In this case, the resulting version string does not change, it's
just the value of the variable put in the file. Consequently, we
do not bump the number in these cases so nobody is tempted to
install the same package again.
2. PKG_VERSION and PKG_RELEASE replaced by sole PKG_RELEASE:
In this case, the resulting version string has been "version-release",
e.g. 1-3 or 1.0-3. For this case, the new PKG_RELEASE will just
need to be higher than the previous PKG_VERSION.
For the cases where PKG_VERSION has always sticked to "1", and
PKG_RELEASE has been incremented, we take the most recent value of
PKG_RELEASE.
Apart from that, a few packages appear to have developed their own
complex versioning scheme, e.g. using x.y.z number for PKG_VERSION
_and_ a PKG_RELEASE (qos-scripts) or using dates for PKG_VERSION
(adb-enablemodem, wwan). I didn't touch these few in this patch.

It is not always necessary to add a host route for the gre peer address.
This introduces a new config option 'nohostroute' (similar to the
option introduced for wireguard in d8e2e19) to allow to disable
the creation of those routes explicitely.

There are two problems with this behaviour that the zone is set to wan
if no zone config option is defined in the interface section.
* The zone for the interface is "normally" specified in the firewall
config file. So if we have defined "no" zone for this interface zone
option is set now to "wan" additonaly if we add the interface in the firewall
config section to the "lan" zone, the interface is added to lan and wan at once.
iptables-save | grep <iface>
This is not what I expect.
* If I do not want to set a zone to this interface it is not possible.
Remove the default assigment to wan if no zone option is defined.
If some one need the option it stil possible to define this option.

Make inclusion of the destination option header containing the tunnel
encapsulation limit configurable for IPv6 GRE packets.
Setting the uci parameter encaplimit to ignore; allows to disable the
insertion of the destination option header in the IPv6 GRE packets.
Otherwise the tunnel encapsulation limit value can be set to a value
from 0 till 255 by setting the encaplimit uci parameter accordingly.

The split-up into packages gre, grev4 and grev6 causes confusion for the
users as reported in FS#1399.
As IPv4 and IPv6 are considered now as bundled; squash the grev4 and grev6
packages into the gre package and let gre provide both grev4 and grev6.

This commit modifies the /lib/netifd/proto/gre.sh script so that, when
GRE-TAP tunnels are created, either IPv4 or IPv6, the prefix before the chosen
interface name contains the "tap" substring, to differentiate them from non-TAP
GRE tunnels.
Right now, both GRE and GRE-TAP tunnel (either IPv4 or IPv6) interfaces defined
in /etc/config/network are named equally ("gre-"+$ifname or "grev6"+$ifname)
upon creation. For instance, the following tunnels:
config interface 'tuna'
option peeraddr '172.30.22.1'
option proto 'gre'
config interface 'tunb'
option peeraddr '192.168.233.4'
option proto 'gretap'
config interface 'tunc'
option peer6addr 'fdc5:7c9e:e93d:45af::1'
option proto 'grev6'
config interface 'tund'
option peer6addr 'fdc0:6071:1348:31ff::2'
option proto 'grev6tap'
are named, respectively, "gre-tuna", "gre-tunb", "grev6-tunc" and "grev6-tund".
The current change makes that each GRE tunnel interface of the four different
types available (gre, gretap, grev6 and grev6tap) gets a different prefix.
Therefore, the abovementioned tunnels will be named, respectively:
"gre4-tuna", "gre4t-tunb", "gre6-tunc" and "gre6t-tund".
This is coherent with other types of virtual interfaces (i.e. PPP, PPPoE, PPPoA)
where the whole protocol name is used. For instance, a PPPoA interface named
"p1" and a PPPoE interface named "p2" will respectively appear as "pppoa-p1"
and "pppoe-p2", not as "ppp-p1" and "ppp-p2").
Since Linux interfaces names are limited to 15 characters, these prefixes leave,
for the worst case (TAP tunnels), 9 characters for the actual name.
