Simon Schippers 485e38995c tun/tap: add IFF_BACKPRESSURE flag
Add the IFF_BACKPRESSURE flag to the UAPI header and to its tools/ copy.
The flag has no effect yet, it is the opt-in switch for the qdisc
backpressure logic added by the following patches.

It is added to TUN_FEATURES only in the last patch of the series, once the
implementation is complete. Until then TUNSETIFF silently masks it off, as
it does for any flag outside TUN_FEATURES.

Keeping the flag and its users in separate patches would either leave a
window where backpressure is unconditional, or make the opt-in a later
add-on. Adding the flag first lets every following patch be a no-op
unless it is set.
