ipip: reject unsupported configurations in fill_forward_path
The ipip fill_forward_path callback currently does not check for
configurations that cannot be offloaded to hardware:
- Collect metadata (flow-based) tunnels have no fixed destination
and rely on per-packet tunnel metadata, so the forward path
cannot be pre-computed.
- TOS inheritance (parms.iph.tos & 0x1) requires copying the outer
TOS from the inner packet at encapsulation time, which is not
known during forward path resolution.
Return -EOPNOTSUPP for both cases to fall back to the software
forwarding path.
