bpf: Add __sk_buff->delivery_time_type and bpf_skb_set_skb_delivery_time()

* __sk_buff->delivery_time_type: This patch adds __sk_buff->delivery_time_type. It tells if the delivery_time is stored in __sk_buff->tstamp or not. It will be most useful for ingress to tell if the __sk_buff->tstamp has the (rcv) timestamp or delivery_time. If delivery_time_type is 0 (BPF_SKB_DELIVERY_TIME_NONE), it has the (rcv) timestamp. Two non-zero types are defined for the delivery_time_type, BPF_SKB_DELIVERY_TIME_MONO and BPF_SKB_DELIVERY_TIME_UNSPEC. For UNSPEC, it can only happen in egress because only mono delivery_time can be forwarded to ingress now. The clock of UNSPEC delivery_time can be deduced from the skb->sk->sk_clockid which is how the sch_etf doing it also. * Provide forwarded delivery_time to tc-bpf@ingress: With the help of the new delivery_time_type, the tc-bpf has a way to tell if the __sk_buff->tstamp has the (rcv) timestamp or the delivery_time. During bpf load time, the verifier will learn if the bpf prog has accessed the new __sk_buff->delivery_time_type. If it does, it means the tc-bpf@ingress is expecting the skb->tstamp could have the delivery_time. The kernel will then read the skb->tstamp as-is during bpf insn rewrite without checking the skb->mono_delivery_time. This is done by adding a new prog->delivery_time_access bit. The same goes for writing skb->tstamp. * bpf_skb_set_delivery_time(): The bpf_skb_set_delivery_time() helper is added to allow setting both delivery_time and the delivery_time_type at the same time. If the tc-bpf does not need to change the delivery_time_type, it can directly write to the __sk_buff->tstamp as the existing tc-bpf has already been doing. It will be most useful at ingress to change the __sk_buff->tstamp from the (rcv) timestamp to a mono delivery_time and then bpf_redirect_*(). bpf only has mono clock helper (bpf_ktime_get_ns), and the current known use case is the mono EDT for fq, and only mono delivery time can be kept during forward now, so bpf_skb_set_delivery_time() only supports setting BPF_SKB_DELIVERY_TIME_MONO. It can be extended later when use cases come up and the forwarding path also supports other clock bases.
