Add a bpf_csum_level() helper which BPF programs can use in combination
with bpf_skb_adjust_room() when they pass in BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_NO_CSUM_RESET
flag to the latter to avoid falling back to CHECKSUM_NONE.

The bpf_csum_level() allows to adjust CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY skb->csum_levels
via BPF_CSUM_LEVEL_{INC,DEC} which calls 
__skb_{incr,decr}_checksum_unnecessary()
on the skb. The helper also allows a BPF_CSUM_LEVEL_RESET which sets the skb's
csum to CHECKSUM_NONE as well as a BPF_CSUM_LEVEL_QUERY to just return the
current level. Without this helper, there is no way to otherwise adjust the
skb->csum_level. I did not add an extra dummy flags as there is plenty of free
bitspace in level argument itself iff ever needed in future.

u64 flags? We can also stuff things into level I guess.

Yeah, I did mention it in the commit log. There is plenty of bit space to extend
with flags in there iff ever needed. Originally, helper was called 
bpf_csum_adjust()
but then renamed into bpf_csum_level() to be more 'topic specific' (aka do one 
thing
and do it well...) and avoid future api overloading, so if necessary level can 
be
used since I don't think the enum will be extended much further from what we 
have
here anyway.
