This commit adds a new sysctl option: net.ipv4.tcp_migrate_req. If this
option is enabled or eBPF program is attached, we will be able to migrate
child sockets from a listener to another in the same reuseport group after
close() or shutdown() syscalls.

+tcp_migrate_req - BOOLEAN
+ The incoming connection is tied to a specific listening socket when
+ the initial SYN packet is received during the three-way handshake.
+ When a listener is closed, in-flight request sockets during the
+ handshake and established sockets in the accept queue are aborted.
+
+ If the listener has SO_REUSEPORT enabled, other listeners on the
+ same port should have been able to accept such connections. This
+ option makes it possible to migrate such child sockets to another
+ listener after close() or shutdown().
+
+ The BPF_SK_REUSEPORT_SELECT_OR_MIGRATE type of eBPF program should
+ usually be used to define the policy to pick an alive listener.
+ Otherwise, the kernel will randomly pick an alive listener only if
+ this option is enabled.
+
+ Note that migration between listeners with different settings may
+ crash applications. Let's say migration happens from listener A to
+ B, and only B has TCP_SAVE_SYN enabled. B cannot read SYN data from
+ the requests migrated from A. To avoid such a situation, cancel
+ migration by returning SK_DROP in the type of eBPF program, or
+ disable this option.
