devip: dont hold ifc wlock during medium bind/unbind
Wlock()'ing the ifc causes a deadlock with Medium bind/unbind as the routine can walk /net, while ndb/dns or ndb/cs are currently blocked enumerating /net/ipifc/*. The fix is to have a fake medium, called "unbound", that is set temporarily during the call of Medium bind and unbind. That way, the interface rwlock can be released while bind/unbind is in progress. The ipifcunbind() routine will refuse to unbind a ifc that is currently assigned to the "unbound" medium, preventing any accidents.
