Add an SKF_AD_HATYPE field to the packet ancilliary data area, giving
access to skb->dev->type, as reported in the sll_hatype field.

When capturing packets on a PF_PACKET/SOCK_RAW socket bound to all
interfaces, there doesn't appear to be a way for the filter program to
actually find out the underlying hardware type the packet was captured
on. This patch adds such ability.

This patch also handles the case where skb->dev can be NULL, such as on
netlink sockets.
