__packed is considered harmful as it potentially generates code that
doesn't perform well and its usage should be avoided as much as
possible.
This patch drops __packed from all SCTP structures except one, which is
sctp_signed_cookie. In there it's required, as per changelog on
commit 9834a2bb4970 ("[SCTP]: Fix sctp_cookie alignment in the packet.").
After this patch, no alignment changes neither in x86 or x86_64 and
no exceptions were noticed during testing on both archs.
Code size for SCTP module also didn't change with this patch.

Add new transport flag to allow sockets to confirm neighbour.
When same struct dst_entry can be used for many different
neighbours we can not use it for pending confirmations.
The flag is propagated from transport to every packet.
It is reset when cached dst is reset.
