Subject: [PATCH 1/3] selftests: forwarding: vxlan_bridge_1d: fix test failure with br_netfilter enabled

The test generates VXLAN traffic using mausezahn, where the encapsulated
inner IPv4 packet contains a zero IP header checksum. After VXLAN
decapsulation, such packets do not pass sanity checks in br_netfilter
and are dropped, which causes the test to fail.

Fix this by calculating and setting a valid IPv4 header checksum for the
encapsulated packet generated by mausezahn, so that the packet is accepted
by br_netfilter.
