gtp: Implement GTP echo response
Adding GTP device through ip link creates the situation where there is no userspace daemon which would handle GTP messages (Echo Request for example). GTP-U instance which would not respond to echo requests would violate GTP specification. When GTP packet arrives with GTP_ECHO_REQ message type, GTP_ECHO_RSP is send to the sender. GTP_ECHO_RSP message should contain information element with GTPIE_RECOVERY tag and restart counter value. For GTPv1 restart counter is not used and should be equal to 0, for GTPv0 restart counter contains information provided from userspace(IFLA_GTP_RESTART_COUNT).
