udp: add udp gso
Implement generic segmentation offload support for udp datagrams. A follow-up patch adds support to the protocol stack to generate such packets. UDP GSO is not UFO. UFO fragments a single large datagram. GSO splits a large payload into a number of discrete UDP datagrams. The implementation adds a GSO type SKB_UDP_GSO_L4 to differentiate it from UFO (SKB_UDP_GSO). IPPROTO_UDPLITE is excluded, as that protocol has no gso handler registered.
