Without dropping dst, the packets sent from local mirred/redirected
to ingress will may still use the old dst. ip_rcv() will drop it as
the old dst is for output and its .input is dst_discard.

This patch is to fix by also dropping dst for those packets that are
mirred or redirected to ingress in act_mirred.

Similar question: what about redirecting from ingress to egress?

We can do it IF there's any user case needing it.
But for now, The problem I've met occurred in ip_rcv() for the user case.

BTW, please CC TC maintainers for TC patches.
