32 bytes may be not enough for some custom metadata. Relax the restriction, allow metadata larger than 32 bytes and make __skb_metadata_differs() work with bigger lengths. Now size of metadata is only limited by the fact it is stored as u8 in skb_shared_info, so the upper limit is now is 255. Other important conditions, such as having enough space for xdp_frame building, are already checked in bpf_xdp_adjust_meta(). The requirement of having its length aligned to 4 bytes is still valid.
