Allow programmable fanout modes. Support both classical BPF programs
passed directly and eBPF programs passed by file descriptor.
One use case is packet steering by deep packet inspection, for
instance for packet steering by application layer header fields.
Separate the configuration of the fanout mode and the configuration
of the program, to allow dynamic updates to the latter at runtime.

packet: add BPF fanout mode
packet: add eBPF fanout mode
selftests/net: test bpf fanout mode
selftests/net: test eBPF fanout mode
