pf: don't reject route-to'd too-large packets
If we're sending a packet via pf_route()/pf_route6() we check for packet size and potentially generate ICMP(6) packet too big messages. If we do, don't consider this a rejected packet. That is, return PF_PASS and set the mbuf to NULL rather than returning PF_DROP. This matters for locally generated packets, because with PF_DROP we can end up returning EACCES to userspace, causing the connection to terminate. Instead, with PF_PASS and a NULL mbuf this is translated to PFIL_CONSUMED, which does not return an error to userspace. MFC after: 2 weeks Sponsored by: Rubicon Communications, LLC ("Netgate")
