xsk: Support tx_metadata_len
For zerocopy mode, tx_desc->addr can point to an arbitrary offset
and carry some TX metadata in the headroom. For copy mode, there
is no way currently to populate skb metadata.
Introduce new tx_metadata_len umem config option that indicates how many
bytes to treat as metadata. Metadata bytes come prior to tx_desc address
(same as in RX case).
The size of the metadata has mostly the same constraints as XDP:
- less than 256 bytes
- 8-byte aligned (compared to 4-byte alignment on xdp, due to 8-byte
timestamp in the completion)
- non-zero
This data is not interpreted in any way right now.
