 *
 * This allows access to network interfaces regardless of the network stack
 * implementation. The network stack must provide
 *
 * - A definition for @p netif_get_name
 * - A definition for @p netif_get_opt
 * - A definition for @p netif_set_opt
 *
 * The network stack should also register each interface via @p netif_register.
