Commit 8303b7e8f018 ("netfilter: nat: fix spurious connection timeouts")
made nf_nat_icmp_reply_translation() use icmp_manip_pkt() as the l4
manipulation function for the outer packet on ICMP errors.
However, icmp_manip_pkt() assumes the packet is an ICMP echo packet
and therefore that the ICMP header's 'un' field is an ICMP echo id.
This is not correct for ICMP error packets, and leads to bogus bytes
being written the ICMP header, which can be wrongfully regarded as
'length' bytes by RFC 4884 compliant receivers.
Fix by assigning the 'id' field only for ICMP echo packets similar
to the treatment in ICMPv6.
