[PATCH 5.15 119/279] tipc: only accept encrypted MSG_CRYPTO msgs

[ Upstream commit 271351d255b09e39c7f6437738cba595f9b235be ]

The MSG_CRYPTO msgs are always encrypted and sent to other nodes
for keys' deployment. But when receiving in peers, if those nodes
do not validate it and make sure it's encrypted, one could craft
a malicious MSG_CRYPTO msg to deploy its key with no need to know
other nodes' keys.

This patch is to do that by checking TIPC_SKB_CB(skb)->decrypted
and discard it if this packet never got decrypted.

Note that this is also a supplementary fix to CVE-2021-43267 that
can be triggered by an unencrypted malicious MSG_CRYPTO msg.
