This patch makes two enhancements to the routine used to
set bit fields within a TIPC message header:
1) It now ignores any bits of the new field value that are not
covered by the mask being used. (Previously, if the new value
exceeded the size of the mask the extra bits could corrupt
other fields in the message header word being updated.)
2) The code has been optimized to minimize the number of run-time
endianness conversion operations by leveraging the fact that the
mask (and, in some cases, the value as well) is constant and the
necessary conversion can be performed by the compiler.

This patch removes code associated with optional, user-specified
fields of the TIPC message header. Such fields were never
utilized by TIPC, and have now been removed from the protocol
specification.
