net-timestamp: no-payload option

Add timestamping option SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY. For transmit
timestamps, this loops timestamps on top of empty packets.

Doing so reduces the pressure on SO_RCVBUF. Payload inspection and
cmsg reception (aside from timestamps) are no longer possible. This
works together with a follow on patch that allows administrators to
only allow tx timestamping if it does not loop payload or metadata.

option IP_PKTINFO simultaneously.
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY:
Applies to transmit timestamps only. Makes the kernel return the
timestamp as a cmsg alongside an empty packet, as opposed to
alongside the original packet. This reduces the amount of memory
charged to the socket's receive budget (SO_RCVBUF) and delivers
the timestamp even if sysctl net.core.tstamp_allow_data is 0.
This option disables SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_CMSG.
New applications are encouraged to pass SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID to
disambiguate timestamps and SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY to operate
regardless of the setting of sysctl net.core.tstamp_allow_data.
An exception is when a process needs additional cmsg data, for
instance SOL_IP/IP_PKTINFO to detect the egress network interface.
Then pass option SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_CMSG. This option depends on
having access to the contents of the original packet, so cannot be
combined with SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY.
