net: ipv6: Get rcv timestamp if needed when handling hop-by-hop IOAM option



IOAM is a hop-by-hop option with a temporary iana allocation (49).
Since it is hop-by-hop, it is done before the input routing decision.
One of the traced data field is the (rcv) timestamp.

When the locally generated skb is looping from egress to ingress over
a virtual interface (e.g. veth, loopback...), skb->tstamp may have the
delivery time before it is known that it will be delivered locally
and received by another sk.

Like handling the network tapping (tcpdump) in the earlier patch,
this patch gets the timestamp if needed without over-writing the
delivery_time in the skb->tstamp.  skb_tstamp_cond() is added to do the
ktime_get_real() with an extra cond arg to check on top of the
netstamp_needed_key static key.  skb_tstamp_cond() will also be used in
a latter patch and it needs the netstamp_needed_key check.
