Add new type for mac addresses.

Add function which sets the qemu default mac address if it finds the mac
address uninitialized (i.e. all zeros).

Let's make it a stronger type and avoid introducing more _t types.  I'd 
suggest:

typedef struct MacAddress
{
    uint8_t addr[6];
} MacAddress

Couldn't we set the default based on a qdev default property?  A #define 
could be used to ensure there was a global default.

Oh yes, killing that _t was on the todo list anyway, forgot it.
Will do for the next respin.

Why the extra struct?

cheers,

To make the type strong so that type checking actually works.
