[PATCH] xfrm: Added the auth and enc update support in "state update"

The "ip xfrm state update" process doesn't update the new authendication
and encryption keys as well as it doesn't return an error.

        sel src ::/0 dst ::/0

The issue resolved by updating the x1->aalg, x1->ealg with new keys.

This is intentional, the original state is not XFRM_STATE_ACQ,
so you are not allowed to update keys without requesting for
a new SPI. The original code was written 15 years ago, based
on RFC 2367 (PF_KEY) which says we must return -EINVAL in this
case. So if we change this, we should return an error.
