ieee802154: change _cb handling slightly
The current mac_cb handling of ieee802154 is rather awkward and limited.
Decompose the single flags field into multiple fields with the meanings
of each subfield of the flags field to make future extensions (for
example, link-layer security) easier. Also don't set the frame sequence
number in upper layers, since that's a thing the MAC is supposed to set
on frame transmit - we set it on header creation, but assuming that
upper layers do not blindly duplicate our headers, this is fine.
