genet: pullup minimum header amount for IPv4
The genet driver (RPi4 Ethernet) had code to pull headers into the
first mbuf if there was only an Ethernet header there. This was
originally needed for ICMPv6 replies, then for forwarded IPv6/TCP.
Now a situation has been found where it is needed for IPv4, when
using NAT with IPFW. Generalize to do this for all protocols.
Rather than using an IPv6-related definition for the length, move
the length to a variable that can be set with sysctl
(hw.genet.tx_hdr_min). Move an old tunable to a new RDTUN variable
with a better name.

genet: workaround for problem with ICMPv6 echo replies
The ICMPv6 echo reply is constructed with the IPv6 header too close to
the beginning of a packet for an Ethernet header to be prepended, so we
end up with an mbuf containing just the Ethernet header. The GENET
controller doesn't seem to handle this, with or without transmit checksum
offload. At least until we have chip documentation, do a pullup to
satisfy the chip. Hopefully this can be fixed properly in the future.
