net/netmon: swap to swift-derived defaultRoute on macos (#11936)
Updates tailscale/corp#18960

iOS uses Apple's NetworkMonitor to track the default interface and
there's no reason we shouldn't also use this on macOS, for the same
reasons noted in the comments for why this change was made on iOS.

This eliminates the need to load and parse the routing table when
querying the defaultRouter() in almost all cases.

A slight modification here (on both platforms) to fallback to the default
BSD logic in the unhappy-path rather than making assumptions that
may not hold.  If netmon is eventually parsing AF_ROUTE and able
to give a consistently correct answer for the  default interface index,
we can fall back to that and eliminate the Swift dependency.

Brad Fitzpatrick b9adbe2002 net/{interfaces,netmon}, all: merge net/interfaces package into net/netmon
In prep for most of the package funcs in net/interfaces to become
methods in a long-lived netmon.Monitor that can cache things.  (Many
of the funcs are very heavy to call regularly, whereas the long-lived
netmon.Monitor can subscribe to things from the OS and remember
answers to questions it's asked regularly later)
