Add ability to specify routing table ID to the `bpf_fib_lookup` BPF
helper.

A new field `tbid` is added to `struct bpf_fib_lookup` used as
parameters to the `bpf_fib_lookup` BPF helper.

When the helper is called with the `BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_DIRECT` flag and the
`tbid` field in `struct bpf_fib_lookup` is greater then 0, the `tbid`
field will be used as the table ID for the fib lookup.

I think table id 0 is legal in the kernel, right?
It is probably okay to consider table id 0 not supported to
simplify the user interface. But it would be great to
add some explanations in the commit message.


If the `tbid` does not exist the fib lookup will fail with
`BPF_FIB_LKUP_RET_NOT_FWDED`.

The `tbid` field becomes a union over the vlan related output fields in
`struct bpf_fib_lookup` and will be zeroed immediately after usage.

This functionality is useful in containerized environments.

For instance, if a CNI wants to dictate the next-hop for traffic leaving
a container it can create a container-specific routing table and perform
a fib lookup against this table in a "host-net-namespace-side" TC program.

This functionality also allows `ip rule` like functionality at the TC
layer, allowing an eBPF program to pick a routing table based on some
aspect of the sk_buff.

As a concrete use case, this feature will be used in Cilium's SRv6 L3VPN
datapath.

When egress traffic leaves a Pod an eBPF program attached by Cilium will
determine which VRF the egress traffic should target, and then perform a
FIB lookup in a specific table representing this VRF's FIB.
