Would it make sense to implement such special treatment directly
in netif_set_addr()? This way the whole thing would be consistent -
netifapi_netif_set_addr() would still be a wrapper for
netif_set_addr(), nothing special about it. Personally I would prefer
this option.

If such special treatment would be implemented only
in netifapi_netif_set_addr(), then this function would no longer be
equivalent to netif_set_addr()...

If one really wants to set any of the addresses to 0, then there's no
problem - instead of NULL, just use IPADDR_ANY.
