[NetLabel]: CIPSOv4 engine 



Add support for the Commercial IP Security Option (CIPSO) to the IPv4
network stack.  CIPSO has become a de-facto standard for
trusted/labeled networking amongst existing Trusted Operating Systems
such as Trusted Solaris, HP-UX CMW, etc.  This implementation is
designed to be used with the NetLabel subsystem to provide explicit
packet labeling to LSM developers.

The CIPSO/IPv4 packet labeling works by the LSM calling a NetLabel API
function which attaches a CIPSO label (IPv4 option) to a given socket;
this in turn attaches the CIPSO label to every packet leaving the
socket without any extra processing on the outbound side.  On the
inbound side the individual packet's sk_buff is examined through a
call to a NetLabel API function to determine if a CIPSO/IPv4 label is
present and if so the security attributes of the CIPSO label are
returned to the caller of the NetLabel API function.
