[ptxdist] [PATCH 0/2] libnet: version bump and add license information

[Alexander Dahl via ptxdist]

Hello,

doing the version bump before adding the license information here,
because libnet dropped BSD-4-Clause and moved license files before v1.3
release.

[ptxdist] [PATCH 1/2] libnet: version bump 1.1.6 -> 1.3

[Alexander Dahl via ptxdist]

Project moved from SourceForge to GitHub before v1.2
(see hint on old sourceforge website).

While v1.1.6 was released back in 2012, v1.2 was released in 2019,
and v1.3 in 2023.  Noteworthy changes in addition to accumulated fixes:

- Removed lua bindings
- Added pkg-config support
- Added support for LLDP, mandatory TLVs
- Added support for Cisco UniDirectional Link Detection (UDLD)
- Assume everyone on Linux has PF_PACKET now

See release notes for details.

[ptxdist] [PATCH 2/2] libnet: Add license information

[Alexander Dahl via ptxdist]

Most of the code is BSD-2-Clause with two exceptions.
The code of src/libnet_link_*.c is BSD-3-Clause,
and the asn1 code (for snmp) has an additional section which exactly
matches the MIT-CMU license.
