[PATCH bpf-next v3 1/4] selftests/bpf: robustify test_xdp_do_redirect with more payload magics

[Alexander Lobakin <aleksander.lobakin@xxxxxxxxx>]

Currently, the test relies on that only dropped ("xmitted") frames will
be recycled and if a frame became an skb, it will be freed later by the
stack and never come back to its page_pool.
So, it easily gets broken by trying to recycle skbs[0]:

  test_xdp_do_redirect:PASS:pkt_count_xdp 0 nsec
  test_xdp_do_redirect:FAIL:pkt_count_zero unexpected pkt_count_zero:
actual 9936 != expected 2
  test_xdp_do_redirect:PASS:pkt_count_tc 0 nsec

That huge mismatch happened because after the TC ingress hook zeroes the
magic, the page gets recycled when skb is freed, not returned to the MM
layer. "Live frames" mode initializes only new pages and keeps the
recycled ones as is by design, so they appear with zeroed magic on the
Rx path again.
Expand the possible magic values from two: 0 (was "xmitted"/dropped or
did hit the TC hook) and 0x42 (hit the input XDP prog) to three: the new
one will mark frames hit the TC hook, so that they will elide both
@pkt_count_zero and @pkt_count_xdp. They can then be recycled to their
page_pool or returned to the page allocator, this won't affect the
counters anyhow. Just make sure to mark them as "input" (0x42) when they
appear on the Rx path again.
Also make an enum from those magics, so that they will be always visible
and can be changed in just one place anytime. This also eases adding any
new marks later on.
