net: Introduce ife encapsulation module
This module is responsible for the ife encapsulation protocol
encode/decode logics. That module can:
- ife_encode: encode skb and reserve space for the ife meta header
- ife_decode: decode skb and extract the meta header size
- ife_tlv_meta_encode - encodes one tlv entry into the reserved ife
header space.
- ife_tlv_meta_decode - decodes one tlv entry from the packet
- ife_tlv_meta_next - advance to the next tlv
