The extended IPv4 L4 header mode in act_pedit can select TCP or UDP
header fields without confirming that the IPv4 protocol field matches
the selected transport header.
That lets a rule written for TCP or UDP modify unrelated payload bytes
in a packet carrying a different protocol.
Verify that the IPv4 header is long enough, that the protocol matches
the selected TCP or UDP header, and that the packet is not a non-initial
fragment before applying TCP or UDP extended header edits.

Add a tdc test that checks the act_pedit extended L4 header mode does not
edit a packet whose IPv4 protocol does not match the selected transport
header.
The test installs an ingress pedit rule that sets the UDP destination
port, then injects a TCP packet with dport 2222. The UDP and TCP
destination ports sit at the same L4 offset, so a buggy kernel rewrites
the TCP dport. A second flower filter matches TCP dport 2222 and drops
the packet through an indexed gact action; the test then verifies via
JSON that this action saw exactly one packet, i.e. the dport was left
untouched and still matched 2222.
