bpf: Add BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_SKIP_NEIGH for bpf_fib_lookup
The bpf_fib_lookup() also looks up the neigh table. This was done before bpf_redirect_neigh() was added. In the use case that does not manage the neigh table and requires bpf_fib_lookup() to lookup a fib to decide if it needs to redirect or not, the bpf prog can depend only on using bpf_redirect_neigh() to lookup the neigh. It also keeps the neigh entries fresh and connected. This patch adds a bpf_fib_lookup flag, SKIP_NEIGH, to avoid the double neigh lookup when the bpf prog always call bpf_redirect_neigh() to do the neigh lookup. The params->smac output is skipped together when SKIP_NEIGH is set because bpf_redirect_neigh() will figure out the smac also.
