dev: Build most of the networking devices in the NULL_ISA build.

The only part of these devices which are incompatible with other ISAs,
with the possible exception of endianness transformation, is that
the dist_iface implementation refers to ThreadContext methods and
that class is heavily tied to the guest ISA. Only those few lines are
excluded in a NULL_ISA build.
