cls_bpf: introduce integrated actions

Often cls_bpf classifier is used with single action drop attached.
Optimize this use case and let cls_bpf return both classid and action.
For backwards compatibility reasons enable this feature under
TCA_BPF_FLAG_ACT_DIRECT flag.

Then more interesting programs like the following are easier to write:
int cls_bpf_prog(struct __sk_buff *skb)
{
  /* classify arp, ip, ipv6 into different traffic classes
   * and drop all other packets
   */
  switch (skb->protocol) {
  case htons(ETH_P_ARP):
    skb->tc_classid = 1;
    break;
  case htons(ETH_P_IP):
    skb->tc_classid = 2;
    break;
  case htons(ETH_P_IPV6):
    skb->tc_classid = 3;
    break;
  default:
    return TC_ACT_SHOT;
  }

  return TC_ACT_OK;
}
