net/sched: act_ife: validate the control action inside init()

the following script:

 # tc qdisc add dev crash0 clsact
 # tc filter add dev crash0 egress matchall \
 > action ife encode allow mark pass index 90
 # tc actions replace action ife \
 > encode allow mark goto chain 42 index 90 cookie c1a0c1a0
 # tc action show action ife

had the following output:

 IFE type 0xED3E
 IFE type 0xED3E
 Error: Failed to init TC action chain.
 We have an error talking to the kernel
 total acts 1

         action order 0: ife encode action goto chain 42 type 0XED3E
         allow mark
          index 90 ref 2 bind 1
         cookie c1a0c1a0

Then, the first packet transmitted by crash0 made the kernel crash:

 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000

 CR2: 0000000000000000

Validating the control action within tcf_ife_init() proved to fix the
above issue. A TDC selftest is added to verify the correct behavior.

Fixes: db50514f9a ("net: sched: add termination action to allow goto chain")
Fixes: 97763dc0f4 ("net_sched: reject unknown tcfa_action values")
