    net: skb: rename SKB_DROP_REASON_PTYPE_ABSENT
    
    As David Ahern suggested, the reasons for skb drops should be more
    general and not be code based.
    
    Therefore, rename SKB_DROP_REASON_PTYPE_ABSENT to
    SKB_DROP_REASON_UNHANDLED_PROTO, which is used for the cases of no
    L3 protocol handler, no L4 protocol handler, version extensions, etc.
    
    >From previous discussion, now we have the aim to make these reasons
    more abstract and users based, avoiding code based.
