Mihai Parparita fa932fefe7 net/interfaces: redo how we get the default interface on macOS and iOS
With  we added an external mechanism for getting the default
interface, and used it on macOS and iOS (see ).
The goal was to be able to get the default physical interface even when
using an exit node (in which case the routing table would say that the
Tailscale utun* interface is the default).

However, the external mechanism turns out to be unreliable in some
cases, e.g. when multiple cellular interfaces are present/toggled (I
have occasionally gotten my phone into a state where it reports the pdp_ip1
interface as the default, even though it can't actually route traffic).

It was observed that `ifconfig -v` on macOS reports an "effective interface"
for the Tailscale utn* interface, which seems promising. By examining
the ifconfig source code, it turns out that this is done via a
SIOCGIFDELEGATE ioctl syscall. Though this is a private API, it appears
to have been around for a long time (e.g. it's in the 10.13 xnu release
at https://opensource.apple.com/source/xnu/xnu-4570.41.2/bsd/net/if_types.h.auto.html)
and thus is unlikely to go away.

We can thus use this ioctl if the routing table says that a utun*
interface is the default, and go back to the simpler mechanism that
we had before .
