The current state of affairs will not allow to set a MAC address and
thus will initialize a random MAC address.
However, when we are in a situation where we are trying to interface
Zephyr OS QEMU VMs with physical targets for testing, this is not
practical. We need to create a macvtap interface, on which we need to
set the MAC address of the Zephyr OS SLIP device so packets can be
routed. There is no way to guess which random address is going to be
used, and there is no practical way to query it.
So this patch adds a CONFIG_SLIP_MAC_ADDR config
setting. slip_iface_init() is changed to take the code from
slip_get_mac() for initializing the MAC address (which should be
happening there anyway) and if CONFIG_SLIP_MAC_ADDR is set, it takes
that one -- otherwise goes to generate a random one.

Net core then does not know anything about l2 related logic.
For instance ARP is used in ethernet l2 API and nowhere else.
This will be helpful when adding different technologies altogether.
Currently, only SLIP driver is enabled to use relevant l2 layer.

If CONFIG_SLIP_TAP is defined, then ethernet link layer header is
added before the packet.

The SLIP driver is using UART pipe driver to communicate with
host when Zephyr is running in Qemu. Currently this is only
used by networking sub-system when testing the networking
stack.
