ipmux: implement hangup ctl

Implement a hangup ctl command that flushes the
queues, but keeps the filter around.

This can be usefull for low-overhead traffic blocking,
as only the file-descriptor needs to be kept around
and the queues can be flushed.

No user-space process is needed to consume packets
and no buffers are wasted.

example:

aux/dial -e -o hangup 'ipmux!ver=4;src=8.8.8.8' rc -c 'echo 0 > /srv/blocked'

rm /srv/blocked
