ipv6: implement dataplane support for rthdr type 4 (Segment Routing Header)
Implement minimal support for processing of SR-enabled packets as described in https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-6man-segment-routing-header-02 . This patch implements the following operations: - Intermediate segment endpoint: incrementation of active segment and rerouting. - Egress for SR-encapsulated packets: decapsulation of outer IPv6 header + SRH and routing of inner packet. - Cleanup flag support for SR-inlined packets: removal of SRH if we are the penultimate segment endpoint. A per-interface sysctl seg6_enabled is provided, to accept/deny SR-enabled packets. Default is deny. This patch does not provide support for HMAC-signed packets.
