tipc: fix link attribute propagation bug
Changing certain link attributes (link tolerance and link priority) from the TIPC management tool is supposed to automatically take effect at both endpoints of the affected link. Currently the media address is not instantiated for the link and is used uninstantiated when crafting protocol messages designated for the peer endpoint. This means that changing a link property currently results in the property being changed on the local machine but the protocol message designated for the peer gets lost. Resulting in property discrepancy between the endpoints. In this patch we resolve this by using the media address from the link entry and using the bearer transmit function to send it. Hence, we can now eliminate the redundant function tipc_link_prot_xmit() and the redundant field tipc_link::media_addr.
