ipv6: introdcue __ipv6_addr_needs_scope_id and ipv6_iface_scope_id helper functions

[net-next commit b7ef213ef65256168df83ddfbb8131ed9adc10f9]

__ipv6_addr_needs_scope_id checks if an ipv6 address needs to supply
a 'sin6_scope_id != 0'. 'sin6_scope_id != 0' was enforced in case
of link-local addresses. To support interface-local multicast these
checks had to be enhanced and are now consolidated into these new helper
functions.

v2:
a) migrated to struct ipv6_addr_props

v3:
a) reverted changes for ipv6_addr_props
b) test for address type instead of comparing scope

v4:
a) unchanged

net: ipv6: Add IPv6 support to the ping socket.

[backport of net-next 6d0bfe22611602f36617bc7aa2ffa1bbb2f54c67]

This adds the ability to send ICMPv6 echo requests without a
raw socket. The equivalent ability for ICMPv4 was added in
2011.

Instead of having separate code paths for IPv4 and IPv6, make
most of the code in net/ipv4/ping.c dual-stack and only add a
few IPv6-specific bits (like the protocol definition) to a new
net/ipv6/ping.c. Hopefully this will reduce divergence and/or
duplication of bugs in the future.

Caveats:

- Setting options via ancillary data (e.g., using IPV6_PKTINFO
  to specify the outgoing interface) is not yet supported.
- There are no separate security settings for IPv4 and IPv6;
  everything is controlled by /proc/net/ipv4/ping_group_range.
- The proc interface does not yet display IPv6 ping sockets
  properly.

Tested with a patched copy of ping6 and using raw socket calls.
Compiles and works with all of CONFIG_IPV6={n,m,y}.

ping: always initialize ->sin6_scope_id and ->sin6_flowinfo

[net-next commit c26d6b46da3ee86fa8a864347331e5513ca84c2b]

If we don't need scope id, we should initialize it to zero.
Same for ->sin6_flowinfo.

net: ipv6: fix wrong ping_v6_sendmsg return value

[net-next commit fbfe80c890a1dc521d0b629b870e32fcffff0da5]

ping_v6_sendmsg currently returns 0 on success. It should return
the number of bytes written instead.

ping: prevent NULL pointer dereference on write to msg_name

A plain read() on a socket does set msg->msg_name to NULL. So check for
NULL pointer first.

tcp: add a sysctl to config the tcp_default_init_rwnd

The default initial rwnd was hardcoded to 10.

Now we allow it to be controlled via
  /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_default_init_rwnd
which limits the values from 3 to 100

This is somewhat needed because ipv6 routes are
autoconfigured by the kernel.
