net: Embed hh_cache inside of struct neighbour.
Now that there is a one-to-one correspondance between neighbour and hh_cache entries, we no longer need: 1) dynamic allocation 2) attachment to dst->hh 3) refcounting Initialization of the hh_cache entry is indicated by hh_len being non-zero, and such initialization is always done with the neighbour's lock held as a writer.
