net/packet: add PACKET_FANOUT_FLAG_IGNORE_OUTGOING
Extend packet socket option PACKET_IGNORE_OUTGOING to fanout groups. The socket option sets ptype.ignore_outgoing, which makes dev_queue_xmit_nit skip the socket. When the socket joins a fanout group, the option is not reflected in the struct ptype of the group. dev_queue_xmit_nit only tests the fanout ptype, so the flag is ignored once a socket joins a fanout group. Inheriting the option from a socket would change established behavior. Different sockets in the group can set different flags, and can also change them at runtime. Testing in packet_rcv_fanout defeats the purpose of the original patch, which is to avoid skb_clone in dev_queue_xmit_nit (esp. for MSG_ZEROCOPY packets). Instead, introduce a new fanout group flag with the same behavior.
