vtnet: improve checksum offloading
When transmitting a packet over the vtnet interface, map the
csum flags CSUM_DATA_VALID | CSUM_PSEUDO_HDR to the virtio
flag VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID.
When receiving a packet over the virtio network channel, translate
the virtio flag VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM not to CSUM_DATA_VALID |
CSUM_PSEUDO_HDR, but to CSUM_TCP, CSUM_TCP_IPV6, CSUM_UDP, or
CSUM_UDP_IPV6.
The second change fixes a series of issue related to checksum
offloading for if_vtnet.
While there, improve the stats counters to allow a detailed view
on what is going on in relation to checksum offloading.
