xfrm: lwtunnel: add lwtunnel support for xfrm interfaces in collect_md mode
Allow specifying the xfrm interface if_id and link as part of a route metadata using the lwtunnel infrastructure. This allows for example using a single xfrm interface in collect_md mode as the target of multiple routes each specifying a different if_id. With the appropriate changes to iproute2, considering an xfrm device ipsec1 in collect_md mode one can for example add a route specifying an if_id like so: ip route add <SUBNET> dev ipsec1 encap xfrm if_id 1 In which case traffic routed to the device via this route would use if_id in the xfrm interface policy lookup. Or in the context of vrf, one can also specify the "link" property: ip route add <SUBNET> dev ipsec1 encap xfrm if_id 1 link_dev eth15 Note: LWT_XFRM_LINK uses NLA_U32 similar to IFLA_XFRM_LINK even though internally "link" is signed. This is consistent with other _LINK attributes in other devices as well as in bpf and should not have an effect as device indexes can't be negative.
