selftests/bpf: Add flags and VLAN hint to xdp_hw_metadata

Add VLAN hint to the xdp_hw_metadata program.

Also, to make metadata layout more straightforward, add flags field
to pass information about validity of every separate hint separately.

selftests/bpf: Allow VLAN packets in xdp_hw_metadata

Make VLAN c-tag and s-tag XDP hint testing more convenient
by not skipping VLAN-ed packets.

Allow both 802.1ad and 802.1Q headers.

selftests/bpf: xdp_hw_metadata track more timestamps

To correlate the hardware RX timestamp with something, add tracking of
two software timestamps both clock source CLOCK_TAI (see description in
man clock_gettime(2)).

XDP metadata is extended with xdp_timestamp for capturing when XDP
received the packet. Populated with BPF helper bpf_ktime_get_tai_ns(). I
could not find a BPF helper for getting CLOCK_REALTIME, which would have
been preferred. In userspace when AF_XDP sees the packet another
software timestamp is recorded via clock_gettime() also clock source
CLOCK_TAI.

Example output shortly after loading igc driver:

poll: 1 (0) skip=1 fail=0 redir=2
xsk_ring_cons__peek: 1
0x12557a8: rx_desc[1]->addr=100000000009000 addr=9100 comp_addr=9000
rx_hash: 0x82A96531 with RSS type:0x1
rx_timestamp: 1681740540304898909 (sec:1681740540.3049)
XDP RX-time: 1681740577304958316 (sec:1681740577.3050) delta sec:37.0001 (37000059.407 usec)
AF_XDP time: 1681740577305051315 (sec:1681740577.3051) delta sec:0.0001 (92.999 usec)
0x12557a8: complete idx=9 addr=9000

The first observation is that the 37 sec difference between RX HW vs XDP
timestamps, which indicate hardware is likely clock source
CLOCK_REALTIME, because (as of this writing) CLOCK_TAI is initialised
with a 37 sec offset.

The 93 usec (microsec) difference between XDP vs AF_XDP userspace is the
userspace wakeup time. On this hardware it was caused by CPU idle sleep
states, which can be reduced by tuning /dev/cpu_dma_latency.

View current requested/allowed latency bound via:
hexdump --format '"%d\n"' /dev/cpu_dma_latency

More explanation of the output and how this can be used to identify
clock drift for the HW clock can be seen here[1]:

selftests/bpf: Verify xdp_metadata xdp->af_xdp path

- create new netns
- create veth pair (veTX+veRX)
- setup AF_XDP socket for both interfaces
- attach bpf to veRX
- send packet via veTX
- verify the packet has expected metadata at veRX
