XDP have evolved to support several frame sizes, but xdp_buff was not
updated with this information. This have caused the side-effect that
XDP frame data hard end is unknown. This have limited the BPF-helper
bpf_xdp_adjust_tail to only shrink the packet. This patchset address
this and add packet tail extend/grow.

The purpose of the patchset is ALSO to reserve a memory area that can be
used for storing extra information, specifically for extending XDP with
multi-buffer support. One proposal is to use same layout as
skb_shared_info, which is why this area is currently 320 bytes.

When converting xdp_frame to SKB (veth and cpumap), the full tailroom
area can now be used and SKB truesize is now correct. For most
drivers this result in a much larger tailroom in SKB "head" data
area. The network stack can now take advantage of this when doing SKB
coalescing. Thus, a good driver test is to use xdp_redirect_cpu from
samples/bpf/ and do some TCP stream testing.

Use-cases for tail grow/extend:
(1) IPsec / XFRM needs a tail extend[1][2].
(2) DNS-cache responses in XDP.
(3) HAProxy ALOHA would need it to convert to XDP.
(4) Add tail info e.g. timestamp and collect via tcpdump

Examples on howto access the tail area of an XDP packet is shown in the
XDP-tutorial example[3].
