====================
tipc: introduce 128-bit auto-configurable node id

We introduce a 128-bit free-format node identity as an alternative to
the legacy <Zone.Cluster.Node> structured 32-bit node address.

We also make configuration of this identity optional; if a bearer is
enabled without a pre-configured node id it will be set automatically
based on the used interface's MAC or IP address.
