batman-adv: Add wrapper to look up neighbor and send skb
By adding batadv_send_skb_to_orig() in send.c, we can remove duplicate
code that looks up the next hop and then calls batadv_send_skb_packet().
Furthermore, this prepares the upcoming new implementation of
fragmentation, which requires the next hop to route packets.
Please note that this doesn't entirely remove the next-hop lookup in
routing.c and unicast.c, since it is used by the current fragmentation
code.
Also note that the next-hop info is removed from debug messages in
translation-table.c, since it is looked up elsewhere.
