VXLAN_INVALID_HDR and VXLAN_VNI_NOT_FOUND describe conditions that are
not specific to vxlan: a malformed tunnel header, and a packet for
which no tunnel device is found. The GRE receive paths converted later
in this series drop packets for the same two conditions.

Rename them to TUNNEL_INVALID_HDR and TUNNEL_NOT_FOUND and reword their
descriptions, the way VXLAN_NO_REMOTE became NO_TX_TARGET in commit
46e0ccfb88f0 ("net: vxlan: rename SKB_DROP_REASON_VXLAN_NO_REMOTE").
The numeric values stay the same; the names that the skb:kfree_skb
tracepoint and drop_monitor report change.
