Similar to commit c146066ab802 ("ipv4: Don't use ufo handling on later
transformed packets"), don't perform UFO on packets that will be IPsec
transformed. To detect it we rely on the fact that headerlen in
dst_entry is non-zero only for transformation bundles (xfrm_dst
objects).

Unwanted segmentation can be observed with a NETIF_F_UFO capable device,
such as a dummy device:

  DEV=dum0 LEN=1493

  ip li add $DEV type dummy
  ip addr add fc00::1/64 dev $DEV nodad
  ip link set $DEV up
  ip xfrm policy add dir out src fc00::1 dst fc00::2 \
     tmpl src fc00::1 dst fc00::2 proto esp spi 1
  ip xfrm state add src fc00::1 dst fc00::2 \
     proto esp spi 1 enc 'aes' 0x0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b

  tcpdump -n -nn -i $DEV -t &
  socat /dev/zero,readbytes=$LEN udp6:[fc00::2]:$LEN

tcpdump output before:

  IP6 fc00::1 > fc00::2: frag (0|1448) ESP(spi=0x00000001,seq=0x1), length 1448
  IP6 fc00::1 > fc00::2: frag (1448|48)
  IP6 fc00::1 > fc00::2: ESP(spi=0x00000001,seq=0x2), length 88

... and after:

  IP6 fc00::1 > fc00::2: frag (0|1448) ESP(spi=0x00000001,seq=0x1), length 1448
  IP6 fc00::1 > fc00::2: frag (1448|80)
