Unlike TCP, UDP checksums are optional and may be zero to indicate "not
set" [RFC 768] (except for IPv6, where this prohibited [RFC 8200]). Add
this special case to the checksum offload emulation in net/tap.

Overall patch looks good to me, but can you please add a comment on top of above
check to describe why checksum can be zero, as done in the commit log.
