ipv6: Implement limits on Hop-by-Hop and Destination options 

RFC 8200 (IPv6) defines Hop-by-Hop options and Destination options
extension headers. Both of these carry a list of TLVs which is
only limited by the maximum length of the extension header (2048
bytes). By the spec a host must process all the TLVs in these
options, however these could be used as a fairly obvious
denial of service attack. I think this could in fact be
a significant DOS vector on the Internet, one mitigating
factor might be that many FWs drop all packets with EH (and
obviously this is only IPv6) so an Internet wide attack might not
be so effective (yet!).

By my calculation, the worse case packet with TLVs in a standard
1500 byte MTU packet that would be processed by the stack contains
1282 invidual TLVs (including pad TLVS) or 724 two byte TLVs. I
wrote a quick test program that floods a whole bunch of these
packets to a host and sure enough there is substantial time spent
in ip6_parse_tlv. These packets contain nothing but unknown TLVS
(that are ignored), TLV padding, and bogus UDP header with zero
payload length.

  25.38%  [kernel]                    [k] __fib6_clean_all
  21.63%  [kernel]                    [k] ip6_parse_tlv
   4.21%  [kernel]                    [k] __local_bh_enable_ip
   2.18%  [kernel]                    [k] ip6_pol_route.isra.39
   1.98%  [kernel]                    [k] fib6_walk_continue
   1.88%  [kernel]                    [k] _raw_write_lock_bh
   1.65%  [kernel]                    [k] dst_release

This patch adds configurable limits to Destination and Hop-by-Hop
options. There are three limits that may be set:
  - Limit the number of options in a Hop-by-Hop or Destination options
    extension header.
  - Limit the byte length of a Hop-by-Hop or Destination options
    extension header.
  - Disallow unrecognized options in a Hop-by-Hop or Destination
    options extension header.

The limits are set in corresponding sysctls:

  ipv6.sysctl.max_dst_opts_cnt
  ipv6.sysctl.max_hbh_opts_cnt
  ipv6.sysctl.max_dst_opts_len
  ipv6.sysctl.max_hbh_opts_len

If a max_*_opts_cnt is less than zero then unknown TLVs are disallowed.
The number of known TLVs that are allowed is the absolute value of
this number.

If a limit is exceeded when processing an extension header the packet is
dropped.

Default values are set to 8 for options counts, and set to INT_MAX
for maximum length. Note the choice to limit options to 8 is an
arbitrary guess (roughly based on the fact that the stack supports
three HBH options and just one destination option).

These limits have being proposed in draft-ietf-6man-rfc6434-bis.

Tested (by Martin Lau)

I tested out 1 thread (i.e. one raw_udp process).

I changed the net.ipv6.max_dst_(opts|hbh)_number between 8 to 2048.
With sysctls setting to 2048, the softirq% is packed to 100%.
With 8, the softirq% is almost unnoticable from mpstat.

v2;
  - Code and documention cleanup.
  - Change references of RFC2460 to be RFC8200.
  - Add reference to RFC6434-bis where the limits will be in standard.

/* Limits on Hop-by-Hop and Destination options.
*
* Per RFC8200 there is no limit on the maximum number or lengths of options in
* Hop-by-Hop or Destination options other then the packet must fit in an MTU.
* We allow configurable limits in order to mitigate potential denial of
* service attacks.
*
* There are three limits that may be set:
* - Limit the number of options in a Hop-by-Hop or Destination options
* extension header
* - Limit the byte length of a Hop-by-Hop or Destination options extension
* header
* - Disallow unknown options
*
* The limits are expressed in corresponding sysctls:
*
* ipv6.sysctl.max_dst_opts_cnt
* ipv6.sysctl.max_hbh_opts_cnt
* ipv6.sysctl.max_dst_opts_len
* ipv6.sysctl.max_hbh_opts_len
*
* max_*_opts_cnt is the number of TLVs that are allowed for Destination
* options or Hop-by-Hop options. If the number is less than zero then unknown
* TLVs are disallowed and the number of known options that are allowed is the
* absolute value. Setting the value to INT_MAX indicates no limit.
*
* max_*_opts_len is the length limit in bytes of a Destination or
* Hop-by-Hop options extension header. Setting the value to INT_MAX
* indicates no length limit.
*
* If a limit is exceeded when processing an extension header the packet is
* silently discarded.
