Having separate format hints and tokens per IP address family is
unnecessary, since they are represented by different types and we handle
format hints for each type separately. So we can just have one format
hint.
Also, we should be consistent with the format strings grammar in
Rust[0]. The `type` token, which is mapped to formatting traits, usually
consists of one letter[1] (and optional `?` for `Debug` trait, but that
doesn't matter for us). It shouldn't consist of multiple letters. Our
`:ipv4` and `:ipv6` tokens were clearly breaking that convention, so we
should rather switch to something with one letter - hence `:i`.

Add `{:mac}` (for lower-case hex representation) and `{:MAC}` (for
upper-case hex representation) format hints for the `[u8; 6]` type,
which is the standard one in Linux to store physical addresses in.

This change adds optional display hints:
* `{:x}`, `{:X}` - for hex representation of numbers
* `{:ipv4}`, `{:IPv4}` - for IPv4 addresses
* `{:ipv6}`, `{:IPv6}` - for IPv6 addresses
It also gets rid of dyn-fmt and instead comes with our own parser
implementation.
