exthdr (frag) seems to have several issues:

- we should reject exthdr and only allow it with ipv6.
- for inet/bridge, we should also inject ipv6 dependency
- some exthdrs (frag for instance) have odd bit lengths
  and need mask/shift instructions.

For example, in your example rule we generate:
   [ exthdr load 1b @ 44 + 2 => reg 1 ]
   [ cmp eq reg 1 0x00002100 ]

But thats not correct -- we truncated the load to one byte.
Instead we should have loaded 2 bytes and then masked off the extra 3bits.

I'll work on this.
