[newlib 60/65] kernel: deprecate Internet Class A/B/C

From: Mike Karels <karels at FreeBSD.org>

Hide historical Class A/B/C macros unless IN_HISTORICAL_NETS is defined;
define it for user level.  Define IN_MULTICAST separately from IN_CLASSD,
and use it in pf instead of IN_CLASSD.  Stop using class for setting
default masks when not specified; instead, define new default mask
(24 bits).  Warn when an Internet address is set without a mask.
