ipv4: new ip_no_pmtu_disc mode to always discard incoming frag needed msgs

Browse Source 
This new mode discards all incoming fragmentation-needed notifications
as I guess was originally intended with this knob. To not break backward
compatibility too much, I only added a special case for mode 2 in the
receiving path.

Disable Path MTU Discovery. If enabled in mode 1 and a
fragmentation-required ICMP is received, the PMTU to this
destination will be set to min_pmtu (see below). You will need
to raise min_pmtu to the smallest interface MTU on your system
manually if you want to avoid locally generated fragments.
In mode 2 incoming Path MTU Discovery messages will be
discarded. Outgoing frames are handled the same as in mode 1,
implicitly setting IP_PMTUDISC_DONT on every created socket.
Possible values: 0-2
Default: FALSE
