About the following call in the end of ESP8266WiFiSTAClass::config():
netif_set_addr(eagle_lwip_getif(STATION_IF), &info.ip, &info.netmask, &info.gw);

With lwip2, it is needed to trigger IP address change.
Recall: when lwip2 is enabled, lwip1 api is still used by espressif firmware

We need first to disable the lwIP API redirection for netif_set_addr() so lwip1's call will be linked:
https://github.com/d-a-v/esp82xx-nonos-linklayer/blob/25d5e8186f710a230221021cba97727dbfdfd953/glue-lwip/arch/cc.h#L122

We also need to declare its prototype using ip4_addr_t instead of ip_addr_t because lwIP-1.x never has IPv6.
No need to worry about this #undef, this call is only needed in lwip2, and never used in arduino core code.
