[UDP]: Clean up UDP-Lite receive checksum

This patch eliminates some duplicate code for the verification of
receive checksums between UDP-Lite and UDP. It does this by
introducing __skb_checksum_complete_head which is identical to
__skb_checksum_complete_head apart from the fact that it takes
a length parameter rather than computing the first skb->len bytes.

As a result UDP-Lite will be able to use hardware checksum offload
for packets which do not use partial coverage checksums. It also
means that UDP-Lite loopback no longer does unnecessary checksum
verification.

If any NICs start support UDP-Lite this would also start working
automatically.

This patch removes the assumption that msg_flags has MSG_TRUNC clear
upon entry in recvmsg.

[NET]: Supporting UDP-Lite (RFC 3828) in Linux

the way files are organized and compiled in the following manner:

[NET]: Supporting UDP-Lite (RFC 3828) in Linux

This is a revision of the previously submitted patch, which alters
the way files are organized and compiled in the following manner:

* UDP and UDP-Lite now use separate object files
* source file dependencies resolved via header files
net/ipv{4,6}/udp_impl.h
* order of inclusion files in udp.c/udplite.c adapted
accordingly

[NET/IPv4]: Support for the UDP-Lite protocol (RFC 3828)

This patch adds support for UDP-Lite to the IPv4 stack, provided as an
extension to the existing UDPv4 code:
* generic routines are all located in net/ipv4/udp.c
* UDP-Lite specific routines are in net/ipv4/udplite.c
* MIB/statistics support in /proc/net/snmp and /proc/net/udplite
* shared API with extensions for partial checksum coverage

[NET/IPv6]: Extension for UDP-Lite over IPv6

It extends the existing UDPv6 code base with support for UDP-Lite
in the same manner as per UDPv4. In particular,
* UDPv6 generic and shared code is in net/ipv6/udp.c
* UDP-Litev6 specific extensions are in net/ipv6/udplite.c
* MIB/statistics support in /proc/net/snmp6 and /proc/net/udplite6
* support for IPV6_ADDRFORM
* aligned the coding style of protocol initialisation with af_inet6.c
* made the error handling in udpv6_queue_rcv_skb consistent;
to return `-1' on error on all error cases
* consolidation of shared code

[NET]: UDP-Lite Documentation and basic XFRM/Netfilter support

The UDP-Lite patch further provides
* API documentation for UDP-Lite
* basic xfrm support
* basic netfilter support for IPv4 and IPv6 (LOG target)
