net: tap: track dropped skb via kfree_skb_reason()



The TAP can be used as vhost-net backend. E.g., the tap_handle_frame() is
the interface to forward the skb from TAP to vhost-net/virtio-net.

However, there are many "goto drop" in the TAP driver. Therefore, the
kfree_skb_reason() is involved at each "goto drop" to help userspace
ftrace/ebpf to track the reason for the loss of packets.

The below reasons are introduced:

- SKB_DROP_REASON_SKB_CSUM
- SKB_DROP_REASON_SKB_GSO_SEG
- SKB_DROP_REASON_SKB_UCOPY_FAULT
- SKB_DROP_REASON_DEV_HDR
- SKB_DROP_REASON_FULL_RING
