net: introduce sk_skb_reason_drop function
Long used destructors kfree_skb and kfree_skb_reason do not pass receiving socket to packet drop tracepoints trace_kfree_skb. This makes it hard to track packet drops of a certain netns (container) or a socket (user application). The naming of these destructors are also not consistent with most sk/skb operating functions, i.e. functions named "sk_xxx" or "skb_xxx". Introduce a new functions sk_skb_reason_drop as drop-in replacement for kfree_skb_reason on local receiving path. Callers can now pass receiving sockets to the tracepoints. kfree_skb and kfree_skb_reason are still usable but they are now just inline helpers that call sk_skb_reason_drop. Note it is not feasible to do the same to consume_skb. Packets not dropped can flow through multiple receive handlers, and have multiple receiving sockets. Leave it untouched for now.
