The re-segmentation added by the next patch splits an oversized TCP GSO skb
into several GSO skbs which fit the device limits.  That needs the GSO
engine to group several MSS segments into one output skb, so let callers
set the number of MSS segments each output skb may carry and pass it
through the existing __skb_gso_segment() entry point.  Ordinary callers
pass zero for no limit.

Without max_segs, skb_segment() groups several MSS into one output skb only
for a device which advertises NETIF_F_GSO_PARTIAL or for a skb with a
frag_list which can be split into uniform pieces, and falls back to one
segment per skb otherwise.  A caller which sets max_segs asks for the
grouping regardless, so the block which makes that decision is skipped.
Callers which pass zero keep it, and the re-segmentation path only runs for
an unencapsulated TCP skb without a frag_list.

The output stays a GSO skb: gso_size is the original MSS and gso_segs is
the number of MSS it holds, so a downstream device can still perform
ordinary TSO.  Store max_segs in the existing skb_gso_cb scratch context,
alongside the call-local data_offset and mac_offset fields, so that the
segmentation methods keep their signature.  A zero max_segs value means
that no limit is active; it is not a persistent skb flag.

v4:
- drop the comment at the frag_list gate
- call the feature re-segmentation rather than bound
- say in the kernel-doc which skbs may set max_segs
