Add ecmp_rehash.sh with nine scenarios verifying that TCP rehash
selects a different local ECMP path for IPv6:

  - SYN retransmission (forward path blocked during setup)
  - SYN/ACK retransmission (reverse path blocked during setup)
  - Midstream RTO (forward path blocked on established connection)
  - Midstream ACK rehash (reverse path blocked on established connection)
  - PLB rehash (ECN-driven congestion on established connection)
  - Hash policy 1 negative test (rehash attempted but path unchanged)
  - No flowlabel leak (client mp_hash does not alter on-wire flowlabel)
  - Dst rebuild consistency (route replace does not change path)
  - Dst rebuild consistency with syncookies (same via cookie_v6_check)

The policy 1 test verifies that fib_multipath_hash_policy=1 computes
a deterministic 5-tuple hash, so txhash re-rolls do not change the
ECMP path while TcpTimeoutRehash still increments.

The flowlabel leak test sets auto_flowlabels=0 on the client and
installs tc filters on client egress that drop TCP packets with
nonzero flowlabel, confirming that the client's fl6->mp_hash does
not leak into the on-wire IPv6 flow label.

The dst rebuild tests stream data, replace the ECMP route with
identical nexthops, and verify that traffic stays on the same path.
The route replace creates a new fib6_info, causing ip6_dst_check()
to fail on the next transmit and trigger a fresh route lookup via
inet6_csk_route_socket() (or cookie_v6_check() for syncookies).
ECMP_REBUILD_ROUNDS=10 repeats the check to reduce the probability
of a buggy kernel passing by chance with 2-way ECMP.
