[PATCH v4 03/12] net: Pad short frames to minimum size before sending from SLiRP/TAP

The minimum Ethernet frame length is 60 bytes. For short frames with smaller length like ARP packets (only 42 bytes), on a real world NIC it can choose either padding its length to the minimum required 60 bytes, or sending it out directly to the wire. Such behavior can be hardcoded or controled by
