This patch adds interface alternating to the new bonding feature. By default, we now try to avoid forwarding packets on the receiving interface, instead choosing alternative interfaces. This feature works only on nodes which have multiple interfaces connected to the mesh. This approach should reduce problems of the half-duplex nature of WiFi Hardware and thus increase performance.
