[PATCH] net/rte_net: fix inner L2 length for tunneled Ethernet packets

Fix incorrect inner_l2_len values for VXLAN, VXLAN-GPE, GTPU, and Geneve.
These protocols carry full Ethernet frames, so inner_l2_len should be
set to the size of an Ethernet header (14 bytes), not include tunnel or
UDP headers.

Fixes: 64ed7f854c ('net: add tunnel packet type parsing')
