Details:

Support sending packets with a destination IP address equal to the netif IP
address, looping them back up the stack (off by default).

See previous discussion here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lwip-devel/2008-01/msg00057.html

Both implementation and usage are quite the same of loopif.c.
To make it work, define IP_TO_SELF=1 in lwipopts.h. If NO_SYS==1, also call
netif_poll() in the mail loop or from a timer.
