bpf: Add struct bpf_tcp_sock and BPF_FUNC_tcp_sock

This patch adds a helper function BPF_FUNC_tcp_sock and it
is currently available for cg_skb and sched_(cls|act):

struct bpf_tcp_sock *bpf_tcp_sock(struct bpf_sock *sk);

int cg_skb_foo(struct __sk_buff *skb) {
	struct bpf_tcp_sock *tp;
	struct bpf_sock *sk;
	__u32 snd_cwnd;

	sk = skb->sk;
	if (!sk)
		return 1;

	tp = bpf_tcp_sock(sk);
	if (!tp)
		return 1;

	snd_cwnd = tp->snd_cwnd;
	/* ... */

	return 1;
}

A 'struct bpf_tcp_sock' is also added to the uapi bpf.h to provide
read-only access.  bpf_tcp_sock has all the existing tcp_sock's fields
that has already been exposed by the bpf_sock_ops.
i.e. no new tcp_sock's fields are exposed in bpf.h.

This helper returns a pointer to the tcp_sock.  If it is not a tcp_sock
or it cannot be traced back to a tcp_sock by sk_to_full_sk(), it
returns NULL.  Hence, the caller needs to check for NULL before
accessing it.

The current use case is to expose members from tcp_sock
to allow a cg_skb_bpf_prog to provide per cgroup traffic
policing/shaping.
