IPVS currently exposes secure_tcp as a per-netns sysctl. It switches the
TCP state machine to the hardened tcp_states_dos table.

These patches make it per-service: a virtual service can set
IP_VS_SVC_F_SECURE_TCP which is passed into IP_VS_CONN_F_SECURE_TCP at
connection creation. set_tcp_state() then selects tcp_states_dos for those
connections with IP_VS_CONN_F_SECURE_TCP set and keeps pd->tcp_state_table
(the netns default, including the nomem floor) otherwise.

  1. uapi: define the per-service secure_tcp flags
  2. stamp the flag in ip_vs_bind_dest() (cache-bypass has no dest)
  3. honor it in the TCP state machine, resolving the stale FIXME
  4. kselftest contrasting a secure vs. a plain service

Changes in v2:
- Let IP_VS_SVC_F_SECURE_TCP be 0x0100, leaving 0x0040/0x0080 for the
  scheduler flags. Let IP_VS_CONN_F_SECURE_TCP be (1 << 17) and no longer
  in IP_VS_CONN_F_BACKUP_MASK.
- Set flag in ip_vs_bind_dest() instead of at every ip_vs_conn_new()
  call site.
- selftest: send probes with TTL=1 instead of an nft drop, and fix
  Sashiko comments.

Changes in v3:
- Merge patch 1/4 and 2/4
- Re-send patches (v2 dropped patches 3/4 and 4/4)

Adriano Cordova (3):
  ipvs: add flags for per-service secure TCP state table
  ipvs: tcp: enable per-connection secure_tcp in state machine
  selftests: netfilter: ipvs: add per-service secure_tcp test
