Call skb_tx_timestamp() within can_put_echo_skb() so that a software tx
timestamp gets attached to the skb.
There two main reasons to include this call in can_put_echo_skb():
* It easily allow to enable the tx timestamp on all devices with
just one small change.
* According to Documentation/networking/timestamping.rst, the tx
timestamps should be generated in the device driver as close as possible,
but always prior to passing the packet to the network interface. During the
call to can_put_echo_skb(), the skb gets cloned meaning that the driver
should not dereference the skb variable anymore after can_put_echo_skb()
returns. This makes can_put_echo_skb() the very last place we can use the
skb without having to access the echo_skb[] array.
Remark: by default, skb_tx_timestamp() does nothing. It needs to be activated
by passing the SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SOFTWARE flag either through socket options
or control messages.

* Support for the error queue in CAN RAW sockets (which is needed for
tx timestamps) was introduced in:
https://git.kernel.org//torvalds/c/eb88531bdbfaafb827192d1fc6c5a3fcc4fadd96
* Put the call to skb_tx_timestamp() just before adding it to the
array:

In order to implement byte queue limits (bql) in CAN drivers, the length of the
CAN frame needs to be passed into the networking stack after queueing and after
transmission completion.
To avoid to calculate this length twice, extend can_get_echo_skb() to return
that value. Convert all users of this function, too.

Add a frame_len argument to can_put_echo_skb() which is used to save length of
the CAN frame into field frame_len of struct can_skb_priv so that it can be
later used after transmission completion. Convert all users of this function,
too.
Drivers which implement BQL call can_put_echo_skb() with the output of
can_skb_get_frame_len(skb) and drivers which do not simply pass zero as an
input (in the same way that NULL would be given to can_get_echo_skb()). This
way, we have a nice symmetry between the two echo functions.

This patch moves the skb related code of the CAN device infrastructure into a
