[RFC PATCH net] ipv4: fix bind address validity regression tests

[Riccardo Paolo Bestetti]

Commit 8ff978b8b222 ("ipv4/raw: support binding to nonlocal addresses")
introduced support for binding to nonlocal addresses, as well as some
basic test coverage for some of the cases.

Commit b4a028c4d031 ("ipv4: ping: fix bind address validity check")
fixes a regression which incorrectly removed some checks for bind
address validation. In addition, it introduces regression tests for
those specific checks. However, those regression tests are defective, in
that they perform the tests using an incorrect combination of bind
flags. As a result, those tests fail when they should succeed.

This commit introduces additional regression tests for nonlocal binding
and fixes the defective regression tests.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS PATCH SHOULD NOT BE APPLIED AS-IS. The ICMP
broadcast and multicast regression tests succeed, but they do so while
returning the wrong error status. In particular, it isn't the bind that
fails, but the socket creation. This is /not/ correct, and it must be
investigated to have proper regression testing. Other instances where
this happens are: 1) if the broadcast/multicast addresses are replace
with an allowed (e.g. local) address (bind should work, but socket is
never created in the first place); 2) the commented out tests (nonlocal
bind should work but ditto.) Additionally, please note that when the
test cases are manually (i.e. without the network namespace setup from
fcnal-test.sh) ran, the expected/correct outcome is observed. The reason
I'm submitting this patch for comments, is that I'm failing to
understand where the issue lies. (Disclamer: might be something
stupid/trivial that I'm plainly missing due to tunnel vision.)
