pasta handles "spliced" port forwarding by resending datagrams received on
a bound socket in the init namespace to a connected socket in the guest
namespace. This means there are actually three ports associated with each
"connection". First there's the source and destination ports of the
originating datagram. That's also the destination port of the forwarded
datagram, but the source port of the forwarded datagram is the kernel
allocated bound address of the connected socket.
However, by bind()ing as well as connect()ing the forwarding socket we can
choose the source port of the forwarded datagrams. By choosing it to match
the original source port we remove that surprising third port number and
no longer need to store port numbers in struct udp_splice_port.
As a bonus this means that the recipient of the packets will see the
original source port if they call getpeername(). This rarely matters, but
it can't hurt.

In the case where the client writes a packet and then closes the
socket, because we receive EPOLLIN|EPOLLRDHUP together we have a
choice of whether to close the socket immediately, or read the packet
and then close the socket. Choose the latter.
This should improve fuzzing coverage and arguably is a better choice
even for regular use since dropping packets on close is bad.

Platforms like Linux allow IPv6 sockets to listen for IPv4 connections as
well as native IPv6 connections. By doing this we halve the number of
listening sockets we need for TCP (assuming passt/pasta is listening on the
same ports for IPv4 and IPv6). When forwarding many ports (e.g. -t all)
this can significantly reduce the amount of kernel memory that passt
consumes.
When forwarding all TCP and UDP ports for both IPv4 and IPv6 (-t all
-u all), this reduces kernel memory usage from ~677MiB to ~487MiB
(kernel version 6.0.8 on Fedora 37, x86_64).

Currently, when instructed to open an IPv6 socket, sock_l4() explicitly
sets the IPV6_V6ONLY socket option so that the socket will only respond to
IPv6 connections. Linux (and probably other platforms) allow "dual stack"
sockets: IPv6 sockets which can also accept IPv4 connections.
Extend sock_l4() to be able to make such sockets, by passing AF_UNSPEC as
the address family and no bind address (binding to a specific address would
defeat the purpose). We add a Makefile define 'DUAL_STACK_SOCKETS' to
indicate availability of this feature on the target platform.

passt usually doesn't NAT, but it does do so for the remapping of the
gateway address to refer to the host. Currently we perform this NAT with
slightly different rules on both IPv4 addresses and IPv6 addresses, but not
on IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses. This means we won't correctly handle the
case of an IPv4 connection over an IPv6 socket, which is possible on Linux
(and probably other platforms).
Refactor tcp_conn_from_sock() to perform the NAT after converting either
address family into an inany_addr, so IPv4 and and IPv4-mapped addresses
have the same representation.
With two new helpers this lets us remove the IPv4 and IPv6 specific paths

This bit in the TCP specific epoll reference indicates whether the
connection is IPv6 or IPv4. However the sites which refer to it are
already calling accept() which (optionally) returns an address for the
remote end of the connection. We can use the sa_family field in that
address to determine the connection type independent of the epoll
reference.
This does have a cost: for the spliced case, it means we now need to get
that address from accept() which introduces an extran copy_to_user().
However, in future we want to allow handling IPv4 connectons through IPv6
sockets, which means we won't be able to determine the IP version at the
time we create the listening socket and epoll reference. So, at some point
we'll have to pay this cost anyway.

It looks like tcp_seq_init() is supposed to advance the sequence number
by one every 32ns. However we only right shift the ns part of the timespec
not the seconds part, meaning that we'll advance by an extra 32 steps on
each second.
I don't know if that's exploitable in any way, but it doesn't appear to be
the intent, nor what RFC 6528 suggests.
In addition, we convert from seconds to nanoseconds with a multiplication
by '1E9'. In C '1E9' is a floating point constant, forcing a conversion

In pasta mode, tcp_sock_init[46]() create separate sockets to listen for
spliced connections (these are bound to localhost) and non-spliced
connections (these are bound to the host address). This introduces a
subtle behavioural difference between pasta and passt: by default, pasta
will listen only on a single host address, whereas passt will listen on
all addresses (0.0.0.0 or ::). This also prevents us using some additional
optimizations that only work with the unspecified (0.0.0.0 or ::) address.
However, it turns out we don't need to do this. We can splice a connection
if and only if it originates from the loopback address. Currently we
ensure this by having the "spliced" listening sockets listening only on
loopback. Instead, defer the decision about whether to splice a connection
until after accept(), by checking if the connection was made from the
loopback address.

sockets are only used in pasta mode, and they always lead to spliced

with a NULL address and interface name, and it doesn't really make sense

Currently spliced and non-spliced connections are stored in completely
separate tables, so there are completely independent limits on the number
of spliced and non-spliced connections. This is a bit counter-intuitive.
More importantly, the fact that the tables are separate prevents us from
unifying some other logic between the two cases. So, merge these two
tables into one, using the 'c.spliced' common field to distinguish between
them when necessary.
For now we keep a common limit of 128k connections, whether they're spliced
or non-spliced, which means we save memory overall. If necessary we could
increase this to a 256k or higher total, which would cost memory but give
some more flexibility.
For now, the code paths which need to step through all extant connections
are still separate for the two cases, just skipping over entries which
