2015-02-146lowpan: add generic nhc layer interfaceAlexander Aring
This patch adds a generic next header compression layer interface. There exists various methods to do a header compression after 6LoWPAN header to save payload. This introduce a generic nhc header which allow a simple adding of a new header compression format instead of a static implementation inside the 6LoWPAN header compression and uncompression function.
