[PATCH] batman-adv: batman-adv: handle tvlv unicast send errors

[Wentao Liang]

In batadv_tvlv_unicast_send(), the return value of
batadv_send_skb_to_orig() is ignored. This could silently
drop send failures, making it difficult to detect connectivity
issues.

Add error checking for batadv_send_skb_to_orig() and log failures
via batadv_dbg() to improve error visibility.

Fixes: 1ad5bcb2a032 ("batman-adv: Consume skb in batadv_send_skb_to_orig")
