[DCCP]: Fix skb->cb conflicts with IP
dev_queue_xmit() and the other IP output functions expect to get a skb
with clear or properly initialized skb->cb. Unlike TCP and UDP, the
dccp_skb_cb doesn't contain a struct inet_skb_parm at the beginning,
so the DCCP-specific data is interpreted by the IP output functions.
This can cause false negatives for the conditional POST_ROUTING hook
invocation, making the packet bypass the hook.
Add a inet_skb_parm/inet6_skb_parm union to the beginning of
dccp_skb_cb to avoid clashes. Also add a BUILD_BUG_ON to make
sure it fits in the cb.
[ Combined with patch from Gerrit Renker to remove two now unnecessary
memsets of IPCB(skb)->opt ]
