Simplifies the API by not requiring the caller to provide the sender address.
Updates all calls to swiftnet_send_packet to reflect this change.
2.Updated related data structures in headers:
SwiftNetClientAddrData and PacketQueueNode no longer expose a separate sender_address field unnecessarily.
3.Refactored packet processing functions:
process_packets.c and other affected files now construct the sender info internally where required.
Ensures consistent handling of client/server packet metadata.
Note :
process_packets.c checks for private IP addresses when processing packets.
Currently, some private IP checks may not fully handle certain cases, so minor issues could arise in environments with unusual IPs.
This is a pre-existing concern and not caused by these changes, but should be reviewed.
