vrf: Reset IPCB/IP6CB when processing outbound pkts in vrf dev xmit



IPCB/IP6CB need to be initialized when processing outbound v4 or v6 pkts
in the codepath of vrf device xmit function so that leftover garbage
doesn't cause futher code that uses the CB to incorrectly process the
pkt.

One occasion of the issue might occur when MPLS route uses the vrf
device as the outgoing device such as when the route is added using "ip
-f mpls route add <label> dev <vrf>" command.

The problems seems to exist since day one. Hence I put the day one
commits on the Fixes tags.

Fixes: 193125db ("net: Introduce VRF device driver")
Fixes: 35402e31 ("net: Add IPv6 support to VRF device")
