This information is already available via IPV6_FLOWINFO
of IPV6_2292PKTOPTIONS, and them a filtering to get the flow label
information. But it is probably logical and easier for users to add this
here, and to control both sent/received flow label values with the
IPV6_FLOWLABEL_MGR option.

With this option, the socket will reply with the flow label value read
on received packets.
The goal is to have a connection with the same flow label in both
direction of the communication.
Changelog of V4:
* Do not erase the flow label on the listening socket. Use pktopts to
store the received value

IPV6_PMTU_INTERFACE is the same as IPV6_PMTU_PROBE for ipv6. Add it
nontheless for symmetry with IPv4 sockets. Also drop incoming MTU
information if this mode is enabled.
The additional bit in ipv6_pinfo just eats in the padding behind the
bitfield. There are no changes to the layout of the struct at all.

Solution:
=========
- Synchronize linux's `include/uapi/linux/in6.h'
with glibc's `inet/netinet/in.h'.
- Synchronize glibc's `inet/netinet/in.h with linux's
`include/uapi/linux/in6.h'.
- Allow including the headers in either other.
- First header included defines the structures and macros.
Details:
========
The kernel promises not to break the UAPI ABI so I don't
see why we can't just have the two userspace headers
coordinate?
If you include the kernel headers first you get those,
and if you include the glibc headers first you get those,
and the following patch arranges a coordination and
synchronization between the two.
Let's handle `include/uapi/linux/in6.h' from linux,
and `inet/netinet/in.h' from glibc and ensure they compile
in any order and preserve the required ABI.
These two patches pass the following compile tests:
cat >> test1.c <<EOF
int main (void) {
return 0;
}
EOF
gcc -c test1.c
cat >> test2.c <<EOF
int main (void) {
return 0;
}
EOF
gcc -c test2.c
One wrinkle is that the kernel has a different name for one of
the members in ipv6_mreq. In the kernel patch we create a macro
to cover the uses of the old name, and while that's not entirely
clean it's one of the best solutions (aside from an anonymous
union which has other issues).
I've reviewed the code and it looks to me like the ABI is
assured and everything matches on both sides.
Notes:
- You want netinet/in.h to include bits/in.h as early as possible,
but it needs in_addr so define in_addr early.
- You want bits/in.h included as early as possible so you can use
the linux specific code to define __USE_KERNEL_DEFS based on
the _UAPI_* macro definition and use those to cull in.h.
- glibc was missing IPPROTO_MH, added here.
Compile tested and inspected.

This will ease further addition of new MRT[6]_* values and avoid to update
in6.h each time.
Note that we reduce the maximum value from 210 to 209, but 210 does not match
any known value in ip[6]_mroute_setsockopt().

userspace can query the original ipv4 destination address of a REDIRECTed
connection via
getsockopt(m_sock, SOL_IP, SO_ORIGINAL_DST, &m_server_addr, &addrsize)
but for ipv6 no such option existed.
This adds getsockopt(..., IPPROTO_IPV6, IP6T_SO_ORIGINAL_DST, ...).
Without this, userspace needs to parse /proc or use ctnetlink, which
appears to be overkill.
This uses option number 80 for IP6T_SO_ORIGINAL_DST, which is spare,
to use the same number we use in the IPv4 socket option SO_ORIGINAL_DST.
