net: extract a few internals from netdevice.h
There's a number of functions and static variables used
under net/core/ but not from the outside. We currently
dump most of them into netdevice.h. That bad for many
reasons:
 - netdevice.h is very cluttered, hard to figure out
   what the APIs are;
 - netdevice.h is very long;
 - we have to touch netdevice.h more which causes expensive
   incremental builds.

Create a header under net/core/ and move some declarations.

The new header is also a bit of a catch-all but that's
fine, if we create more specific headers people will
likely over-think where their declaration fit best.
And end up putting them in netdevice.h, again.

More work should be done on splitting netdevice.h into more
targeted headers, but that'd be more time consuming so small
steps.
