net: ip6mr: add support for passing full packet on wrong mif
This patch adds support for MRT6MSG_WRMIFWHOLE which is used to pass full packet and real vif id when the incoming interface is wrong. While the RP and FHR are setting up state we need to be sending the registers encapsulated with all the data inside otherwise we lose it. The RP then decapsulates it and forwards it to the interested parties. Currently with WRONGMIF we can only be sending empty register packets and will lose that data. This behaviour can be enabled by using MRT_PIM with val == MRT6MSG_WRMIFWHOLE. This doesn't prevent MRT6MSG_WRONGMIF from happening, it happens in addition to it, also it is controlled by the same throttling parameters as WRONGMIF (i.e. 1 packet per 3 seconds currently). Both messages are generated to keep backwards compatibily and avoid breaking someone who was enabling MRT_PIM with val == 4, since any positive val is accepted and treated the same.
