net: sctp: implement rfc6458, 5.3.4. SCTP_SNDINFO cmsg support

This patch implements section 5.3.4. of RFC6458, that is, support
for 'SCTP Send Information Structure' (SCTP_SNDINFO) which can be
placed into ancillary data cmsghdr structure for sendmsg() calls.

The sctp_sndinfo structure is defined as per RFC as below ...

  struct sctp_sndinfo {
    uint16_t snd_sid;
    uint16_t snd_flags;
    uint32_t snd_ppid;
    uint32_t snd_context;
    sctp_assoc_t snd_assoc_id;
  };

... and supplied under cmsg_level IPPROTO_SCTP, cmsg_type
SCTP_SNDINFO, while cmsg_data[] contains struct sctp_sndinfo.
An sctp_sndinfo item always corresponds to the data in msg_iov.

Joint work with Daniel Borkmann.
