netfilter: have ip*t REJECT set the sock err when an icmp is to be sent
Allow the REJECT --reject-with icmp*blabla to also set the matching error locally on the socket affected by the reject. This allows the process to see an error almost as if it received it via ICMP. It avoids the local process who's ingress packet is rejected to have to wait for a pseudo-eternity until some timeout kicks in. Ideally, this should be enabled with a new iptables flag similar to --reject-with-sock-err For now it is enabled with CONFIG_IP*_NF_TARGET_REJECT_SKERR option.
