[tcpip] Allow for transmission to multicast IPv4 addresses

When sending to a multicast address, it may be necessary to specify
the source address explicitly, since the multicast destination address
does not provide enough information to deduce the source address via
the miniroute table.

Allow the source address specified via the data-xfer metadata to be
passed down through the TCP/IP stack to the IPv4 layer, which can use
it as a default source address.
