net: Make enabling of zero UDP6 csums more restrictive
RFC 6935 permits zero checksums to be used in IPv6 however this is recommended only for certain tunnel protocols, it does not make checksums completely optional like they are in IPv4. This patch restricts the use of IPv6 zero checksums that was previously intoduced. no_check6_tx and no_check6_rx have been added to control the use of checksums in UDP6 RX and TX path. The normal sk_no_check_{rx,tx} settings are not used (this avoids ambiguity when dealing with a dual stack socket). A helper function has been added (udp_set_no_check6) which can be called by tunnel impelmentations to all zero checksums (send on the socket, and accept them as valid).
