bpf, netkit: Add indirect call wrapper for fetching peer dev

ndo_get_peer_dev is used in tcx BPF fast path, therefore make use of
indirect call wrapper and therefore optimize the bpf_redirect_peer()
internal handling a bit. Add a small skb_get_peer_dev() wrapper which
utilizes the INDIRECT_CALL_1() macro instead of open coding.

Future work could potentially add a peer pointer directly into struct
net_device in future and convert veth and netkit over to use it so
that eventually ndo_get_peer_dev can be removed.
