net: Add vxlan_gso_check() helper

Most NICs that report NETIF_F_GSO_UDP_TUNNEL support VXLAN, and not
other UDP-based encapsulation protocols where the format and size of the
header differs. This patch implements a generic ndo_gso_check() for
VXLAN which will only advertise GSO support when the skb looks like it
contains VXLAN (or no UDP tunnelling at all).

Implementation shamelessly stolen from Tom Herbert:
