From: Jason Xing <kernelxing@tencent.com>

When one socket is set SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RX_SOFTWARE which means the
whole system turns on the netstamp_needed_key button, other sockets
that only have SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE will be affected and then
print the rx timestamp information even without setting
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RX_SOFTWARE generation flag.

How to solve it without breaking users?
We introduce a new flag named SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_RX_SOFTWARE_FILTER.
Using it together with SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE can stop reporting
the rx timestamp.

1. introduce a new flag to avoid application breakage, suggested by
Willem.
2. add it into the selftests.

v2
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240825152440.93054-1-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com/
Discussed with Willem
1. update the documentation accordingly
2. add more comments in each patch
3. remove the previous test statements in __sock_recv_timestamp()
