packet: allow to transmit +4 byte in TX_RING slot for VLAN case

Browse source 
Commit 57f89bfa21 ("network: Allow af_packet to transmit +4 bytes
for VLAN packets.") added the possibility for non-mmaped frames to
send extra 4 byte for VLAN header so the MTU increases from 1500 to
1504 byte, for example.

Commit cbd89acb9e ("af_packet: fix for sending VLAN frames via
packet_mmap") attempted to fix that for the mmap part but was
reverted as it caused regressions while using eth_type_trans()
on output path.

Lets just act analogous to 57f89bfa21 and add a similar logic
to TX_RING. We presume size_max as overcharged with +4 bytes and
later on after skb has been built by tpacket_fill_skb() check
for ETH_P_8021Q header on packets larger than normal MTU. Can
be easily reproduced with a slightly modified trafgen in mmap(2)
mode, test cases:

 { fill(0xff, 12) const16(0x8100) fill(0xff, <1504|1505>) }
 { fill(0xff, 12) const16(0x0806) fill(0xff, <1500|1501>) }

Note that we need to do the test right after tpacket_fill_skb()
as sockets can have PACKET_LOSS set where we would not fail but
instead just continue to traverse the ring.
