Subject: [PATCH iproute2 v2] vxlan: Allow setting destination to unicast address.

This patch allows setting VXLAN destination to unicast address.
It allows that VXLAN can be used as peer-to-peer tunnel without
multicast.

v2: use a new argument "remote" instead of "group" based by
    Stephen Hemminger's comments.
