af_key: Reject optional tunnel/BEET mode templates in outbound policies



[ Upstream commit cf3128a7 ]

xfrm_state_find() uses `encap_family` of the current template with
the passed local and remote addresses to find a matching state.
If an optional tunnel or BEET mode template is skipped in a mixed-family
scenario, there could be a mismatch causing an out-of-bounds read as
the addresses were not replaced to match the family of the next template.

While there are theoretical use cases for optional templates in outbound
policies, the only practical one is to skip IPComp states in inbound
policies if uncompressed packets are received that are handled by an
implicitly created IPIP state instead.
