tipc: guarantee delivery of UP event before first broadcast
The following scenario is possible: - A user joins a group, and immediately sends out a broadcast message to its members. - The broadcast message, following a different data path than the initial JOIN message sent out during the joining procedure, arrives to a receiver before the latter.. - The receiver drops the message, since it is not ready to accept any messages until the JOIN has arrived. We avoid this by treating group protocol JOIN messages like unicast messages. - We let them pass through the recipient's multicast input queue, just like ordinary unicasts. - We force the first following broadacst to be sent as replicated unicast and being acknowledged by the recipient before accepting any more broadcast transmissions.
