net: core: Switch netif_set_mac_address() to struct sockaddr_storage
In order to avoid passing around struct sockaddr that has a size the
compiler cannot reason about (nor track at runtime), convert
netif_set_mac_address() to take struct sockaddr_storage. This is just a
cast conversion, so there is are no binary changes. Following patches
will make actual allocation changes.
