In preparation for converting the proto-layer getsockopt callbacks to the
sockopt_t interface, switch udp_lib_getsockopt() to take a sockopt_t.

The thin udp_getsockopt()/udpv6_getsockopt() wrappers keep their __user
signature for now: they build a user-backed sockopt_t with
sockopt_init_user(), call the helper, and write the returned length back
to optlen. The helper uses copy_to_iter() instead of copy_to_user().
No functional change.
