tipc: refactor function tipc_msg_reverse()
The function tipc_msg_reverse() is reversing the header of a message while reusing the original buffer. We have seen at several occasions that this may have unfortunate side effects when the buffer to be reversed is a clone. In one of the following commits we will again need to reverse cloned buffers, so this is the right time to permanently eliminate this problem. In this commit we let the said function always consume the original buffer and replace it with a new one when applicable.
