userspace: Add SRv6 tunnel support.
SRv6 (Segment Routing IPv6) tunnel vport is responsible
for encapsulation and decapsulation the inner packets with
IPv6 header and an extended header called SRH
(Segment Routing Header). See spec in:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8754
This patch implements SRv6 tunneling in userspace datapath.
It uses `remote_ip` and `local_ip` options as with existing
tunnel protocols. It also adds a dedicated `srv6_segs` option
to define a sequence of routers called segment list.
