[PATCH v8 20/26] tcp: authopt: If no keys are valid for send report an error

[Leonard Crestez]

If this is not treated specially then when all keys are removed or
expired then TCP will start sending unsigned packets which is
undesirable. Instead try to report an error on key selection and
propagate it to userspace.

The error is assigned to sk_err and propagate it as soon as possible.
In theory we could try to make the error "soft" and even let the
connection continue if userspace adds a new key but the advantages are
unclear.

Since userspace is responsible for managing keys it can also avoid
sending unsigned packets by always closing the socket before removing
the active last key.

The specific error reported is ENOKEY.

This requires changes inside TCP option write code to support aborting
the actual packet send, until this point this did not happen in any
scenario.
