When the portable Monitor creates a winMon via newOSMon, we register
address and route change callbacks with Windows. Once a callback is hit,
it starts a goroutine that attempts to send the event into messagec and returns.
The newly started goroutine then blocks until it can send to the channel.
However, if the monitor is never started and winMon.Receive is never called,
the goroutines remain indefinitely blocked, leading to goroutine leaks and
significant memory consumption in the tailscaled service process on Windows.
Unlike the tailscaled subprocess, the service process creates but never starts
a Monitor.
This PR adds a check within the callbacks to confirm the monitor's active status,
and exits immediately if the monitor hasn't started.

We're using it in more and more places, and it's not really specific to
our use of Wireguard (and does more just link/interface monitoring).
Also removes the separate interface we had for it in sockstats -- it's
a small enough package (we already pull in all of its dependencies
via other paths) that it's not worth the extra complexity.
