The identifier type and checksum neutral mapping bits are optional
in identifier formats. This patch set fixes the implementation to
make them optional and configurable.

Specific items:

  - Clean up checksum diff code in ILA
  - Add checksum neutral mapping auto so that checksum neutral
    mapping can be configured without requiring use of the C-bit
  - Add identifier type configuration and allow identifier
    type to be configured so that the identifier type field does
    not need to be present
  - Added ILA documention: ila.txt

I have fixes for ILA in iproute2 that will be poseted separately.

Tested: Ran netperf TCP_RR on various combinations of checksum
mode and the two supported identifier types.

v2:
  - Add proper sign off
  - In ILA LWT, only check prefix length includes identifier type
    if identifier type is enabled (ILA_ATYPE_USE_FORMAT).
  - Add a hook type so that it can be specified whether ILA
    translation is done on input or output route funciton in
    LWT.
Series applied to net-next, thanks Tom.
