The main purpose of this feature is to associate virtual devices like
veth or netkit with a real PSP device, so we could provide PSP
functionality to the application running with virtual devices.

A typical deployment that works with this feature is as follows:
     Host Namespace:
     psp_dev_local  ←──physically linked──→ psp_dev_peer
          (PSP device)
               │
               │ BPF on psp_dev_local ingress: bpf_redirect_peer() to nk_guest
               │
          nk_host / veth_host
               │
               │ BPF on nk_host ingress: bpf_redirect_neigh() to psp_dev_local
               │
      Guest Namespace (netns):
               │
          nk_guest / veth_guest
          ★ PSP application run here

      Remote Namespace (_netns):
          psp_dev_peer
          ★ PSP server application runs here

Note:
The general requirement for this feature to work:
For PSP to work correctly, the egress device at validate_xmit_skb()
time must have psp_dev matching the association's psd. Any device
stacking or traffic redirection that changes the egress device will
cause either:
1. TX validation failure (SKB_DROP_REASON_PSP_OUTPUT) - fail-safe
2. RX policy failure after tx-assoc - packets without PSP extension
   are rejected by receiver expecting encrypted traffic

Here are a few examples that this feature would not work:
- Bonding with load balancing in round-robin, XOR, 802.3ad mode across
  multiple PSP devices, or mixed PSP and non-PSP devices
- Bonding with active-backup mode might work without PSP migration for
  failover case.
- ipvlan/macvlan in bridge mode would not work given packets are
  loopbacked locally without going through the PSP device.

The first 4 patchs are from this patchset:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20260302053315.1919859-1-dw@davidwei.uk/
We base the newly added test cases on top of env NetDrvContEnv from this
patchset.

Changes since v1:
- Update the first 4 patches to reflect the latest changes in
  https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20260302053315.1919859-1-dw@davidwei.uk/
- Update patch 9 to add a param to NetDrvContEnv to control the loading
  of the tx forwarding bpf program

  psp: Add new netlink cmd for dev-assoc and dev-disassoc
  psp: add a new netdev event for dev unregister
  selftests/net: Add bpf skb forwarding program
  selftest/net: psp: Add test for dev-assoc/disassoc
