conf: Safer parsing of MAC addresses
In conf() we parse a MAC address in two places, for the --ns-mac-addr and
the -M options. As well as duplicating code, the logic for this parsing
has several bugs:
* The most serious is that if the given string is shorter than a MAC
address should be, we'll access past the end of it.
* We don't check the endptr supplied by strtol() which means we could
ignore certain erroneous contents
* We never check the separator characters between each octet
* We ignore certain sorts of garbage that follow the MAC address
Correct all these bugs in a new parse_mac() helper.
