 * \brief Hwmp tag implements interaction between HWMP
 * protocol and MeshWifiMac
 *
 * Hwmp tag keeps the following:
 * 1. When packet is passed from Hwmp to 11sMAC:
 *  - retransmitter address,
 *  - TTL value,
 * 2. When packet is passed to Hwmp from 11sMAC:
 *  - lasthop address,
 *  - TTL value,
 *  - metric value (metric of link is recalculated
 *  at each packet, but routing table stores metric
 *  obtained during path discovery procedure)
