Subject: [PATCH 12/12] [DCCP]: Ignore feature negotiation on Data packets

From: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@....abdn.ac.uk>

This implements [RFC 4340, p. 32]: "any feature negotiation options received
on DCCP-Data packets MUST be ignored".

Also added a FIXME for further processing, since the code currently (wrongly)
classifies empty Confirm options as invalid - this needs to be resolved in
a separate patch.
