ipcpd: Assign random MAC on ETH poa with loopback
The loopback has an all-zero MAC, so two PoAs on a loopback receive
their own frames and a PoA refuses its own FLOW_REQ, failing the flow
with ECONNREFUSED. The shim IPCP didn't have this problem because it
ignored requests for names not registered locally (shim-data). The PoA
has no "local" name registry, it uses the unicast IPCP's directory
(DHT) via IRMd query requests.
This fixes the issue by generating a random locally administered MAC
on the loopback device.
