can: set CANFD_FDF flag in all CAN FD frame structures

To simplify the testing in user space all struct canfd_frame's provided by
the CAN subsystem of the Linux kernel now have the CANFD_FDF flag set in
canfd_frame::flags.

NB: Handcrafted ETH_P_CANFD frames introduced via PF_PACKET socket might
not set this bit correctly. During the check for sufficient headroom in
PF_PACKET sk_buffs the uninitialized CAN sk_buff data structures are filled.
In the case of a CAN FD frame the CANFD_FDF flag is set accordingly.

As the CAN frame content is already zero initialized in alloc_canfd_skb()
the obsolete initialization of cf->flags in the CTU CAN FD driver has been
removed as it would overwrite the already set CANFD_FDF flag.
