selftests: net: Test UDP length overflow with PMTU discover and big MTU

Two previous commits fixed overflow of UDP length when setsockopt
IP(V6)_MTU_DISCOVER is set to IPV6_PMTUDISC_DO or IP(V6)_PMTUDISC_PROBE,
and a large packet is sent over a netdev with an unusually large MTU.

This commit adds the selftests that replicate the described steps to
reproduce for IPv6 and IPv4, and also one more test that ensures that
sending UDP jumbograms over a raw socket is still possible after the
fix.

Test that sending an oversized UDP packet over a UDP socket doesn't overflow

IPv4: The packet will be dropped with EMSGSIZE, but the overflow could
happen before it happens. The only way to test this is to check dmesg on
CONFIG_DEBUG_NET=y kernels that have udp_set_len_short with the warning.
IPv6: The packet will be dropped with EMSGSIZE on fixed kernels, and will be
sent corrupted on older kernels. Test both: sendto must return EMSGSIZE, and
dmesg must be clean of warnings on CONFIG_DEBUG_NET=y kernels.
