[RFC PATCH v2 1/8] landlock: Fix non-TCP sockets restriction

Do not check TCP access right if socket protocol is not IPPROTO_TCP.
LANDLOCK_ACCESS_NET_BIND_TCP and LANDLOCK_ACCESS_NET_CONNECT_TCP
should not restrict bind(2) and connect(2) for non-TCP protocols
(SCTP, MPTCP, SMC).

sk_is_tcp() is used for this to check address family of the socket
before doing INET-specific address length validation. This is required
for error consistency.

Closes: https://github.com/landlock-lsm/linux/issues/40
Fixes: fff69fb03dde ("landlock: Support network rules with TCP bind and connect")

Changes since v1:
* Validate socket family (=INET{,6}) before any other checks
  with sk_is_tcp().
