ip: T4517: add option to enable directed broadcast forwarding
Directed broadcast is described in rfc1812#section-5.3.5.2 and rfc2644. By default Linux kernel doesn't forward directed broadcast packets unless both of `/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/bc_forwarding` and `/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/$iface/bc_forwarding` are set to 1.
