Sean Tranchetti 5316a7c013 tools: selftests: add test for changing routes with PTMU exceptions
Adds new 2 new tests to the PTMU script: pmtu_ipv4/6_route_change.

These tests explicitly test for a recently discovered problem in the
IPv6 routing framework where PMTU exceptions were not properly released
when replacing a route via "ip route change ...".

After creating PMTU exceptions, the route from the device A to R1 will be
replaced with a new route, then device A will be deleted. If the PMTU
exceptions were properly cleaned up by the kernel, this device deletion
will succeed. Otherwise, the unregistration of the device will stall, and
messages such as the following will be logged in dmesg:

unregister_netdevice: waiting for veth_A-R1 to become free. Usage count = 4

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
