V2 update: Directly use NetIp4IsUnicast() to check station address in IP driver.
This patch is to follow RFC3021 which allows to use 31-bit mask
in point-to-point link.
If a 31-bit subnet mask is assigned to a point-to-point link, it
leaves the <Host-number> with only 1 bit. Consequently, only two
possible addresses may result:
{<Network-number>, 0} and {<Network-number>, -1}
These addresses have historically been associated with network and
broadcast addresses (see Section 2.2). In a point-to-point link with
a 31-bit subnet mask, the two addresses above MUST be interpreted as
host addresses.

v2:
* Add the check in Ip4Config2SetDefaultIf to avoid the DHCP configuration
case.
Ip4config2 doesn't check the validity of Ip/Netmask pair, which
leads to the invalid combination of Ip and Netmask setting.
This patch is to resolve the issue.
