Subject: [PATCH net-next 4/5] net: skbuff: push nf_trace down the bitfield

nf_trace is a debug feature, AFAIU, and yet it sits oddly
high in the sk_buff bitfield. Move it down, pushing up
dst_pending_confirm and inner_protocol_type.

Next change will make nf_trace optional (under Kconfig)
and all optional fields should be placed after 2b fields
to avoid 2b fields straddling bytes.

dst_pending_confirm is L3, so it makes sense next to ignore_df.
inner_protocol_type goes up just to keep the balance.
