ipv6: Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib6-rules
Define a dscp_t type and its appropriate helpers that ensure ECN bits are not taken into account when handling DSCP. Use this new type to replace the tclass field of struct fib6_rule, so that fib6-rules don't get influenced by ECN bits anymore. Before this patch, fib6-rules didn't make any distinction between the DSCP and ECN bits. Therefore, rules specifying a DSCP (tos or dsfield options in iproute2) stopped working as soon a packets had at least one of its ECN bits set (as a work around one could create four rules for each DSCP value to match, one for each possible ECN value). After this patch fib6-rules only compare the DSCP bits. ECN doesn't influence the result anymore. Also, fib6-rules now must have the ECN bits cleared or they will be rejected.
