Add support to inet v4 raw sockets for binding to nonlocal addresses through the IP_FREEBIND and IP_TRANSPARENT socket options, as well as the ipv4.ip_nonlocal_bind kernel parameter. Add helper function to inet_sock.h to check for bind address validity on the base of the address type and whether nonlocal address are enabled for the socket via any of the sockopts/sysctl, deduplicating checks in ipv4/ping.c, ipv4/af_inet.c, ipv6/af_inet6.c (for mapped v4->v6 addresses), and ipv4/raw.c. Add test cases with IP[V6]_FREEBIND verifying that both v4 and v6 raw sockets support binding to nonlocal addresses after the change. Add necessary support for the test cases to nettest.

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.
