Function : proto_plumb

    proto_plumb() will plumb a protocol to an actual interface.
    This will find a registered protocol module and call its attach function.
    The module will typically call dlil_attach_protocol with the appropriate parameters.
            
Parameters :
    'protocol_family' is PF_INET, PF_INET6, ...
    'ifp' is the interface to plumb the protocol to.
    
Return code :    

0 :

    No error.

ENOENT:
