Support for mDNS with ip.ttl=255 and LLMNR ip.ttl > 0, not to show invalid TTL

- mDNS SHOULD be sent with TTL set to 255
- LLMNR - May be set to any value
- revised comment.

this report is in relation to bug#3814
please see attached update to 
local_network_control_block_addr_valid_ttl

sec 4 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-cheshire-dnsext-multicastdns-07

   All Multicast DNS responses (including responses sent via unicast)
   SHOULD be sent with IP TTL set to 255. This is recommended to provide
   backwards-compatibility with older Multicast DNS clients that check
   the IP TTL on reception to determine whether the packet originated
   on the local link. These older clients discard all packets with TTLs
   other than 255.

   A host sending Multicast DNS queries to a link-local destination
   address (including the 224.0.0.251 link-local multicast address)
   MUST only accept responses to that query that originate from the
   local link, and silently discard any other response packets. Without
   this check, it could be possible for remote rogue hosts to send
   spoof answer packets (perhaps unicast to the victim host) which the
   receiving machine could misinterpret as having originated on the
   local link.

...
sec 8 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-cheshire-dnsext-multicastdns-07

Multicast DNS
   Responses MUST be sent to UDP port 5353 (the well-known port assigned
   to mDNS) on the 224.0.0.251 multicast address (or its IPv6 equivalent
   FF02::FB). 

---

sec 2 RFC 4795
   LLMNR queries are sent to and received on port 5355.  The IPv4 link-
   scope multicast address a given responder listens to, and to which a
   sender sends queries, is 224.0.0.252.

sec 2.5 RFC 4795
   For UDP queries and responses, the Hop Limit field in the IPv6 header
   and the TTL field in the IPV4 header MAY be set to any value.
   However, it is RECOMMENDED that the value 255 be used for
   compatibility with early implementations of [RFC3927].

see Appendix A.3 of RFC 3927 as well..
