Fix IPv4/IPv6 fragment continuation data being decoded as fake transport headers
A real correctness bug, not just missing visibility: a non-first
fragment's payload is pure continuation data with no TCP/UDP/ICMP
header in it at all, but it was being handed to the transport parsers
unconditionally, which could misread arbitrary payload bytes as port
numbers, sequence numbers, etc. and print a plausible-looking but
entirely fake decode.
IPv4 gained identification/more_fragments/fragment_offset fields; a
nonzero offset now stops summarize_packet before transport dispatch,
reporting the fragment instead. IPv6 expresses fragmentation as an
extension header instead, so the fix lives in
walk_ipv6_extension_headers(): it already walked past Fragment
headers, but never checked the offset before continuing on as if a
transport header followed - the same bug, reached through a
different path. Fixed with an ESP-style hard stop on a nonzero offset.
Caught and fixed a second bug while writing the first fix, before it
ever ran: the fragment's Identification field was a loop-local
variable, discarded the moment the walk continued past a *first*
fragment (offset zero) to keep decoding the real payload underneath --
every later return reported no fragment id even though one applied.
Fixed by hoisting it to a variable that persists across iterations,
the same category of mistake as an earlier IGMPv3 bug.
Fuzzed afterward regardless (fuzz_ipv4, fuzz_ipv6, fuzz_summarize,
~16.8M combined runs) - clean. Live-verified with a real 4000-byte
ping to the local gateway over the actual 1500-MTU interface: both
directions fragmented into 3 pieces each, the first decoded normally
with a fragmentation note, and the continuation fragments correctly
showed only fragment metadata, no fake ICMP decode attempted.
