    Fix a memory leak when ip_output_send() returns EAGAIN due to send tag issues
    
    When ip_output_send() returns EAGAIN due to issues with send tags (route
    change, lagg failover, etc), it must free the mbuf. This is because
    ip_output_send() was written as a wrapper/replacement for a direct
    call to  if_output(), and the contract with if_output() has
    historically been that it owns the mbufs once called. When
    ip_output_send() failed to free mbufs, it violated this assumption
    and lead to leaked mbufs.
    
    This was noticed when using NIC TLS in combination with hardware
    rate-limited connections. When seeing lots of NIC output drops
    triggered ratelimit send tag changes, we noticed we were leaking
    ktls_sessions, send tags and mbufs. This was due ip_output_send()
    leaking mbufs which held references to ktls_sessions, which in
    turn held references to send tags.
    
    Many thanks to jbh, rrs, hselasky and markj for their help in
    debugging this.
