IPv6 Local Link support in NSE

[Kurt Grutzmacher <grutz () jingojango net>]

This may be very limited in use-case. When using IPv6 Local Link addressing
(fe80::0/64) NSE can not send packets to its targets because they do not
contain the transport interface. Originating system is Linux, target is
Windows 2003.

Attempts to connect return:

NSOCK (1.4540s) Callback: READ ERROR [Transport endpoint is not connected
(107)] for EID 354 [fe80::20c:29ff:fe0a:c682:445]
NSOCK (1.4540s) Callback: READ ERROR [Transport endpoint is not connected
(107)] for EID 362 [fe80::20c:29ff:fe0a:c682:445]
NSOCK (1.4540s) Callback: READ ERROR [Transport endpoint is not connected
(107)] for EID 370 [fe80::20c:29ff:fe0a:c682:445]

nmap of course has no problem connecting and discovering tcp/445 open.
