ipv4/raw: support binding to nonlocal addresses
Add support to inet v4 raw sockets for binding to nonlocal addresses through the IP_FREEBIND and IP_TRANSPARENT socket options, as well as the ipv4.ip_nonlocal_bind kernel parameter. Add helper function to inet_sock.h to check for bind address validity on the base of the address type and whether nonlocal address are enabled for the socket via any of the sockopts/sysctl, deduplicating checks in ipv4/ping.c, ipv4/af_inet.c, ipv6/af_inet6.c (for mapped v4->v6 addresses), and ipv4/raw.c. Add test cases with IP[V6]_FREEBIND verifying that both v4 and v6 raw sockets support binding to nonlocal addresses after the change. Add necessary support for the test cases to nettest.
