When looking for outer IP header, use the actual socket address family, not
the address family of the default destination which is not set for metadata
based interfaces (and doesn't have to match the address family of the
received packet even if it was set).

Fix also the misleading comment.

Fill the metadata correctly even when tunneling over IPv6. Also, check that
the provided metadata is of an address family that is supported by the
tunnel.

While transitioning to netdev based vport we broke OVS
feature which allows user to retrieve tunnel packet egress
information for lwtunnel devices.  Following patch fixes it
by introducing ndo operation to get the tunnel egress info.
Same ndo operation can be used for lwtunnel devices and compat
ovs-tnl-vport devices. So after adding such device operation
we can remove similar operation from ovs-vport.

Fixes: 614732eaa12d ("openvswitch: Use regular VXLAN net_device device").

Before lightweight tunnels existed, it really didn't make sense to
create a tunnel that was not fully specified, such as without a
destination IP address - the resulting packets would go nowhere.
However, with lightweight tunnels, the opposite is true - it doesn't
make sense to require this information when it will be provided later
on by the route. This loosens the requirements for this information.

An alternative would be to allow the relaxed version only when
COLLECT_METADATA is enabled. However, since there are several
variations on this theme (such as NBMA tunnels in GRE), just dropping
the restrictions seems the most consistent across tunnels and with
the existing configuration.

For metadata based vxlan interface, open both IPv4 and IPv6 socket. This is
much more user friendly: it's not necessary to create two vxlan interfaces
and pay attention to using the right one in routing rules.

Make vxlan_sock_add both alloc the socket and attach it to vxlan_dev. Let
vxlan_sock_release accept vxlan_dev as its parameter instead of vxlan_sock.

This makes vxlan_sock_add and vxlan_sock release complementary. It reduces
code duplication in the next patch.

When IPv6 address is set without IPv6 configured, the vxlan socket is mostly
treated as an IPv4 one but various lookus in fdb etc. still take the
AF_INET6 into account. This creates incosistencies with weird consequences.

Just reject IPv6 addresses in such case.
