net/tap-bsd.c was assuming IFF_VNET_HDR was always available, which
I think isn't true on any BSD.

Hi!

 I made another experimental FreeBSD qemu git snapshot port update
(see other mail), and came up with these patches when getting tap back
to working order again:

1. Fix tap breakage on BSD hosts (no IFF_VNET_HDR)
2. Avoid segfault on net_tap_init() failure
3. tap-bsd: handle ifname on FreeBSD hosts
