Subject: [PATCH iproute2] ip/l2tp: remove offset and peer-offset options

Ignore options "peer-offset" and "offset" when creating sessions. Keep
them when dumping sessions in order to avoid breaking external scripts.

"peer-offset" has always been a noop in iproute2. "offset" is now
ignored in Linux 4.16 (and was broken before that).
