Inside a Solo5 unikernel I need to know what addresses the IP stack has acquired and since I'm already using Syndicate I can have the IP stack publish its addresses to a local dataspace.

The same assertion can be used within Synit or for monitoring a remote node so I figure it ought to be defined alongside the Synit assertions.

The address field is bare bytes rather than a textual address, but when encoded to hex it's still readable (#x"fe80000000000000a0c22cfffe340f34").

The zone field is to disambiguate addresses that are not unique or to discriminate addresses by interface. Zones are described by RFC4007.

The linkLocal field is redundant information if you know how to interpret the bits in the address but this makes it easy to write a pattern that only matches "global" addresses.

I have not regenerated the schema bundle. I don't yet have a working Node installation for the schema compiler and my own compiler doesn't have a good enough parser yet.
