Michael S. Tsirkin 05c2828c72 tun: export underlying socket

Tun device looks similar to a packet socket
in that both pass complete frames from/to userspace.

This patch fills in enough fields in the socket underlying tun driver
to support sendmsg/recvmsg operations, and message flags
MSG_TRUNC and MSG_DONTWAIT, and exports access to this socket
to modules.  Regular read/write behaviour is unchanged.

This way, code using raw sockets to inject packets
into a physical device, can support injecting
packets into host network stack almost without modification.

First user of this interface will be vhost virtualization
accelerator.
