Alexander Zubkov b8d2619989 treat "default" and "all"/"any" addresses differenty
Debian maintainer found that basic command:
	# ip route flush all
No longer worked as expected which breaks user scripts and
expectations. It no longer flushed all IPv4 routes.

Recently behavior of "default" prefix parameter was corrected. But at
the same time behavior of "all"/"any" was altered too, because they
were the same branch of the code. As those parameters mean different,
they need to be treated differently in code too. This patch reflects
the difference.

Also after mentioned change, address parsing code was changed more
and address family was set explicitly even for "all"/"any" addresses.
And that broke matching conditions further. This patch fixes that too
and returns AF_UNSPEC to "all"/"any" address.

Now "default" is treated as top-level prefix (for example 0.0.0.0/0 in
IPv4) and "all"/"any" always matches anything in exact, root and match
modes.

README

This is a set of utilities for Linux networking.

Information:
    https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/networking/iproute2

Download:

Stable version repository:

Development repository:

How to compile this.
--------------------
1. libdbm

arpd needs to have the db4 development libraries. For Debian
users this is the package with a name like libdb4.x-dev.
DBM_INCLUDE points to the directory with db_185.h which
is the include file used by arpd to get to the old format Berkeley
database routines.  Often this is in the db-devel package.

2. make

The makefile will automatically build a config.mk file which
contains definitions of libraries that may or may not be available
on the system such as: ATM, ELF, MNL, and SELINUX.

3. To make documentation, cd to doc/ directory , then
   look at start of Makefile and set correct values for
   PAGESIZE=a4		, ie: a4 , letter ...	(string)
   PAGESPERPAGE=2	, ie: 1 , 2 ...		(numeric)
   and make there. It assumes, that latex, dvips and psnup
   are in your path.

4. This package includes matching sanitized kernel headers because
   the build environment may not have up to date versions. See Makefile
   if you have special requirements and need to point at different
   kernel include files.
