tap: Add "tap headers" abstraction
Currently both the TCP and UDP code need to deal in various places with the
details of the L2 headers, and also the tap-specific "vnet_len" header.
This makes abstracting the tap interface to new backends (e.g. vhost-user
or tun) more difficult.
To improve this abstraction, create a new 'tap_hdr' structure which
represents both L2 (always Ethernet at the moment, but might be vary in
future) and any additional tap specific headers (such as the qemu socket's
vnet_len field). Provide helper functions and macros to initialize, update
and use it.
