This patch fixes a bug where vnet_skb_shape() didn't set the already-selected
queue mapping when a packet copy was required. This results in using the
wrong queue index for stops/starts, hung tx queues and watchdog timeouts
under heavy load. It also transfers the destructor, truesize, and the owning
socket for flow control (code adapted from skb_segment).

Changes since v1:
 move truesize, destructor and socket per Eric Dumazet [off-list ref]

Sorry, but you should remove this test.

(TCP uses another destructor, not sock_wfree())

All sent packets will support these swap() operations,
regardless of destructor.
