[PATCH 01/10] net: add net_eth_to_udp() helper for validated UDP extraction

[Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>]

The existing net_eth_to_udp_payload(), net_eth_to_udphdr() and
net_eth_to_udplen() helpers parse protocol headers by offset arithmetic
without checking the actual packet length. A short or malformed packet
can cause out-of-bounds reads.

Introduce net_eth_to_udp() which takes the frame pointer and the
NIC-reported length, validates that the packet is large enough to
contain ethernet + IP + UDP headers, cross-checks the UDP length field
against available bytes, and returns all three pieces of information
(udp header, payload pointer, payload length) callers typically need.

The old helpers are kept for now; callers will be converted in subsequent
commits.
