Convert kTLS over to make use of sk_msg interface for plaintext and
encrypted scattergather data, so it reuses all the sk_msg helpers
and data structure which later on in a second step enables to glue
this to BPF.
This also allows to remove quite a bit of open coded helpers which
are covered by the sk_msg API. Recent changes in kTLs 80ece6a03a
("tls: Remove redundant vars from tls record structure") and
4e6d47206c ("tls: Add support for inplace records encryption")
changed the data path handling a bit; while we've kept the latter
optimization intact, we had to undo the former change to better
fit the sk_msg model, hence the sg_aead_in and sg_aead_out have
been brought back and are linked into the sk_msg sgs. Now the kTLS
record contains a msg_plaintext and msg_encrypted sk_msg each.
In the original code, the zerocopy_from_iter() has been used out
of TX but also RX path. For the strparser skb-based RX path,
we've left the zerocopy_from_iter() in decrypt_internal() mostly
untouched, meaning it has been moved into tls_setup_from_iter()
with charging logic removed (as not used from RX). Given RX path
is not based on sk_msg objects, we haven't pursued setting up a
dummy sk_msg to call into sk_msg_zerocopy_from_iter(), but it
could be an option to prusue in a later step.

Add a generic sk_msg layer, and convert current sockmap and later
kTLS over to make use of it. While sk_buff handles network packet
representation from netdevice up to socket, sk_msg handles data
representation from application to socket layer.
This means that sk_msg framework spans across ULP users in the
kernel, and enables features such as introspection or filtering
of data with the help of BPF programs that operate on this data
structure.
Latter becomes in particular useful for kTLS where data encryption
is deferred into the kernel, and as such enabling the kernel to
perform L7 introspection and policy based on BPF for TLS connections
where the record is being encrypted after BPF has run and came to
a verdict. In order to get there, first step is to transform open
coding of scatter-gather list handling into a common core framework
that subsystems can use.
The code itself has been split and refactored into three bigger
pieces: i) the generic sk_msg API which deals with managing the
scatter gather ring, providing helpers for walking and mangling,
transferring application data from user space into it, and preparing
it for BPF pre/post-processing, ii) the plain sock map itself
where sockets can be attached to or detached from; these bits
are independent of i) which can now be used also without sock
map, and iii) the integration with plain TCP as one protocol
to be used for processing L7 application data (later this could
e.g. also be extended to other protocols like UDP). The semantics
are the same with the old sock map code and therefore no change
of user facing behavior or APIs. While pursuing this work it
also helped finding a number of bugs in the old sockmap code
that we've fixed already in earlier commits. The test_sockmap
kselftest suite passes through fine as well.
