8682f588bf tc-mpls: fix manpage example and help message string
Manpage:
 * Remove the extra "and to ip packets" part from command description
   to make it more understandable.

 * Redirect packets to eth1, instead of eth0, as told in the
   description.

Help string:
 * "mpls pop" can be followed by a CONTROL keyword.

 * "mpls modify" can also set the MPLS_BOS field.

02a261b5ba m_mpls: add mac_push action
Add support for the new TCA_MPLS_ACT_MAC_PUSH action (kernel commit
a45294af9e96 ("net/sched: act_mpls: Add action to push MPLS LSE before
Ethernet header")). This action let TC push an MPLS header before the
MAC header of a frame.

Example (encapsulate all outgoing frames with label 20, then add an
outer Ethernet header):
 # tc filter add dev ethX matchall \
       action mpls mac_push label 20 ttl 64 \
       action vlan push_eth dst_mac 0a:00:00:00:00:02 \
                            src_mac 0a:00:00:00:00:01

This patch also adds an alias for ETH_P_TEB, since it is useful when
decapsulating MPLS packets that contain an Ethernet frame.

With MAC_PUSH, there's no previous Ethertype to modify. However, the
"protocol" option is still needed, because the kernel uses it to set
skb->protocol. So rename can_modify_ethtype() to can_set_ethtype().

Also add a test suite for m_mpls, which covers the new action and the
pre-existing ones.
