net: s/dev_get_mac_address/netif_get_mac_address/
Commit cc34acd577f1 ("docs: net: document new locking reality")
introduced netif_ vs dev_ function semantics: the former expects locked
netdev, the latter takes care of the locking. We don't strictly
follow this semantics on either side, but there are more dev_xxx handlers
now that don't fit. Rename them to netif_xxx where appropriate.
netif_get_mac_address is used only by tun/tap, so move it into
NETDEV_INTERNAL namespace.
