Ed Swierk 0dacea92d2 net: Transmit zero UDP checksum as 0xFFFF
The checksum algorithm used by IPv4, TCP and UDP allows a zero value
to be represented by either 0x0000 and 0xFFFF. But per RFC 768, a zero
UDP checksum must be transmitted as 0xFFFF because 0x0000 is a special
value meaning no checksum.

Substitute 0xFFFF whenever a checksum is computed as zero when
modifying a UDP datagram header. Doing this on IPv4 and TCP checksums
is unnecessary but legal. Add a wrapper for net_checksum_finish() that
makes the substitution.

(We can't just change net_checksum_finish(), as that function is also
used by receivers to verify checksums, and in that case the expected
value is always 0x0000.)
