For tunnels such as SRv6, some popular vendor appliances support
IPv6 flowlabel based load balancing. In preparation for OVS to
support it, this patch modifies the encapsulation to allow IPv6
flowlabel to be configured.

SRv6 (Segment Routing IPv6) tunnel vport is responsible
for encapsulation and decapsulation the inner packets with
IPv6 header and an extended header called SRH
(Segment Routing Header). See spec in:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8754
This patch implements SRv6 tunneling in userspace datapath.
It uses `remote_ip` and `local_ip` options as with existing
tunnel protocols. It also adds a dedicated `srv6_segs` option
to define a sequence of routers called segment list.

GTP, GPRS Tunneling Protocol, is a group of IP-based communications
protocols used to carry general packet radio service (GPRS) within
GSM, UMTS and LTE networks. GTP protocol has two parts: Signalling
(GTP-Control, GTP-C) and User data (GTP-User, GTP-U). GTP-C is used
for setting up GTP-U protocol, which is an IP-in-UDP tunneling
protocol. Usually GTP is used in connecting between base station for
radio, Serving Gateway (S-GW), and PDN Gateway (P-GW).
This patch implements GTP-U protocol for userspace datapath,
supporting only required header fields and G-PDU message type.

ERSPAN is a tunneling protocol based on GRE tunnel. The patch
add erspan tunnel support for ovs-vswitchd with userspace datapath.
Configuring erspan tunnel is similar to gre tunnel, but with
additional erspan's parameters. Matching a flow on erspan's
metadata is also supported, see ovs-fields for more details.

The patch adds additional 'struct netdev *' to the
native tunnel's push_header() interface. This is used
for later GRE sequence number support.

Throughout the years, changes in netdev vport have removed the need for some of
the headers, like shash, hmap, and many others. With the recent split of
push/pop code, less headers are needed in each of the two modules.

The native tunneling build tunnel header code is spread across
two different modules, it makes pretty hard to follow the code.
Following patch refactors the code to move all code to
netdev-ative-tnl module.

Current tunnel-pop API does not allow the netdev implementation
retain a packet but STT can keep a packet from batch of packets
during TCP reassembly processing. To return exact count of
valid packet STT need to pass this number of packet parameter
as a reference.

It is better to move tunnel push-pop action specific functions into
separate module.
