net: tun: track dropped skb via kfree_skb_reason()

The TUN can be used as vhost-net backend. E.g, the tun_net_xmit() is the
interface to forward the skb from TUN to vhost-net/virtio-net.

However, there are many "goto drop" in the TUN driver. Therefore, the
kfree_skb_reason() is involved at each "goto drop" to help userspace
ftrace/ebpf to track the reason for the loss of packets.

The below reasons are introduced:

- SKB_DROP_REASON_DEV_READY
- SKB_DROP_REASON_NOMEM
- SKB_DROP_REASON_HDR_TRUNC
- SKB_DROP_REASON_TAP_FILTER
- SKB_DROP_REASON_TAP_TXFILTER
