net: sk_free_datagram() should use sk_mem_reclaim_partial()

I noticed a contention on udp_memory_allocated on regular UDP applications.

While tcp_memory_allocated is seldom used, it appears each incoming UDP frame
is currently touching udp_memory_allocated when queued, and when received by
application.

One possible solution is to use sk_mem_reclaim_partial() instead of
sk_mem_reclaim(), so that we keep a small reserve (less than one page)
of memory for each UDP socket.

We did something very similar on TCP side in commit
9993e7d3
([TCP]: Do not purge sk_forward_alloc entirely in tcp_delack_timer())

A more complex solution would need to convert prot->memory_allocated to
use a percpu_counter with batches of 64 or 128 pages.
