rxrpc: Keep the skb private record of the Rx header in host byte order
Currently, a copy of the Rx packet header is copied into the the sk_buff private data so that we can advance the pointer into the buffer, potentially discarding the original. At the moment, this copy is held in network byte order, but this means we're doing a lot of unnecessary translations. The reasons it was done this way are that we need the values in network byte order occasionally and we can use the copy, slightly modified, as part of an iov array when sending an ack or an abort packet. However, it seems more reasonable on review that it would be better kept in host byte order and that we make up a new header when we want to send another packet. To this end, rename the original header struct to rxrpc_wire_header (with BE fields) and institute a variant called rxrpc_host_header that has host order fields. Change the struct in the sk_buff private data into an rxrpc_host_header and translate the values when filling it in. This further allows us to keep values kept in various structures in host byte order rather than network byte order and allows removal of some fields that are byteswapped duplicates.
