    [DCCP]: Fix skb->cb conflicts with IP
    
    dev_queue_xmit() and the other IP output functions expect to get a skb
    with clear or properly initialized skb->cb. Unlike TCP and UDP, the
    dccp_skb_cb doesn't contain a struct inet_skb_parm at the beginning,
    so the DCCP-specific data is interpreted by the IP output functions.
    This can cause false negatives for the conditional POST_ROUTING hook
    invocation, making the packet bypass the hook.
    
    Add a inet_skb_parm/inet6_skb_parm union to the beginning of
    dccp_skb_cb to avoid clashes. Also add a BUILD_BUG_ON to make
    sure it fits in the cb.
