Implement UDP GSO and GRO for the Linux tun.Device, which is made possible by virtio extensions in the kernel's TUN driver starting in v6.2.
secnetperf, a QUIC benchmark utility from microsoft/msquic@8e1eb1a, is used to demonstrate the effect of this commit between two Linux computers with i5-12400 CPUs. There is roughly ~13us of round trip latency between them. secnetperf was invoked with the following command line options:
-stats:1 -exec:maxtput -test:tput -download:10000 -timed:1 -encrypt:0
The first result is from commit 2e0774f without UDP GSO/GRO on the TUN.
