Subject: [PATCH] batman-adv: tt: extract merging of flags into existing global
 entries

When an already known global TT entry is announced again, its flags have to
be merged with the announced ones. Two of the merge steps also decide
whether the originator list has to be purged before the announced
originator is added.

Move this to batadv_tt_global_merge_flags() and let it report via its
return value whether the originator list has to be purged.
