[TCP]: Fix MD5 signature handling on big-endian.



Based upon a report and initial patch by Peter Lieven.

tcp4_md5sig_key and tcp6_md5sig_key need to start with
the exact same members as tcp_md5sig_key.  Because they
are both cast to that type by tcp_v{4,6}_md5_do_lookup().

Unfortunately tcp{4,6}_md5sig_key use a u16 for the key
length instead of a u8, which is what tcp_md5sig_key
uses.  This just so happens to work by accident on
little-endian, but on big-endian it doesn't.

Instead of casting, just place tcp_md5sig_key as the first member of
the address-family specific structures, adjust the access sites, and
kill off the ugly casts.
