mptcp: introduce implicit endpoints
In some edge scenarios, an MPTCP subflows can use a local address mapped by a "implicit" endpoint created by the in-kernel path manager. Such endpoints presence can be confusing, as it's creation is hard to track and will prevent the later endpoint creation from the user-space using the same address. Define a new endpoint flag to mark implicit endpoints and allow the user-space to replace implicit them with user-provided data at endpoint creation time.
