The BPF-helpers for FIB lookup (bpf_xdp_fib_lookup and bpf_skb_fib_lookup)
can perform MTU check and return BPF_FIB_LKUP_RET_FRAG_NEEDED.  The BPF-prog
don't know the MTU value that caused this rejection.

If the BPF-prog wants to implement PMTU (Path MTU Discovery) (rfc1191) it
need to know this MTU value for the ICMP packet.

Patch change lookup and result struct bpf_fib_lookup, to contain this MTU
value as output via a union with 'tot_len' as this is the value used for
the MTU lookup.

Thanks a lot for the review.  I didn't propagate-it-over in V5 of this
patch, as I changed the name of the output member from mtu to
mtu_result in V5.  Please review V5 and give your review consent.
