Move all the TC identifiers to one place, to the same enum that defines
the identifier of police action. This makes it easier choose numbers for
new actions since they are now defined in one place. We preserve the
original values for binary compatibility. New IDs should be added inside
the enum.

Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

This command could be useful to inc/dec fields.
For example, to forward any TCP packet and decrease its TTL:
$ tc filter add dev enp0s9 protocol ip parent ffff: \
flower ip_proto tcp \
action pedit munge ip ttl add 0xff pipe \
action mirred egress redirect dev veth0
In the example above, adding 0xff to this u8 field is actually
decreasing it by one, since the operation is masked.

Extend pedit to enable the user setting offset relative to network
headers. This change would enable to work with more complex header
schemes (vs the simple IPv4 case) where setting a fixed offset relative
to the network header is not enough.
After this patch, the action has information about the exact header type
and field inside this header. This information could be used later on
for hardware offloading of pedit.
Backward compatibility was being kept:
1. Old kernel <-> new userspace
2. New kernel <-> old userspace
3. add rule using new userspace <-> dump using old userspace
4. add rule using old userspace <-> dump using new userspace
When using the extended api, new netlink attributes are being used. This
way, operation will fail in (1) and (3) - and no malformed rule be added
or dumped. Of course, new user space that doesn't need the new
functionality can use the old netlink attributes and operation will
succeed.
Since action can support both api's, (2) should work, and it is easy to
write the new user space to have (4) work.
The action is having a strict check that only header types and commands
it can handle are accepted. This way future additions will be much
easier.
Usage example:
$ tc filter add dev enp0s9 protocol ip parent ffff: \
flower \
ip_proto tcp \
dst_port 80 \
action pedit munge tcp dport set 8080 pipe \
action mirred egress redirect dev veth0
Will forward tcp port whose original dest port is 80, while modifying
the destination port to 8080.
