ipv6: check skb->protocol before lookup for nexthop

Andrey reported a out-of-bound access in ip6_tnl_xmit(), this
is because we use an ipv4 dst in ip6_tnl_xmit() and cast an IPv4
neigh key as an IPv6 address:

        neigh = dst_neigh_lookup(skb_dst(skb),
                                 &ipv6_hdr(skb)->daddr);
        if (!neigh)
                goto tx_err_link_failure;

        addr6 = (struct in6_addr *)&neigh->primary_key; // <=== HERE
        addr_type = ipv6_addr_type(addr6);

        if (addr_type == IPV6_ADDR_ANY)
                addr6 = &ipv6_hdr(skb)->daddr;

        memcpy(&fl6->daddr, addr6, sizeof(fl6->daddr));

Also the network header of the skb at this point should be still IPv4
for 4in6 tunnels, we shold not just use it as IPv6 header.

This patch fixes it by checking if skb->protocol is ETH_P_IPV6: if it
is, we are safe to do the nexthop lookup using skb_dst() and
ipv6_hdr(skb)->daddr; if not (aka IPv4), we have no clue about which
dest address we can pick here, we have to rely on callers to fill it
from tunnel config, so just fall to ip6_route_output() to make the
decision.
