ipv6: sr: fix seg6 encap performances with TSO enabled

[ Upstream commit 5807b22c9164a21cd1077a9bc587f0bba361f72d ]

Enabling TSO can lead to abysmal performances when using seg6 in
encap mode, such as with the ixgbe driver. This patch adds a call to
iptunnel_handle_offloads() to remove the encapsulation bit if needed.
