batman-adv: add bonding again
With the new interface alternating, the first hop may send packets in a round robin fashion to it's neighbors because it has multiple valid routes built by the multi interface optimization. This patch enables the feature if bonding is selected. Note that unlike the bonding implemented before, this version is much simpler and may even enable multi path routing to a certain degree.
