The patch teaches packet library to truncate padding octets.
Change packet_base.parser() to return (header, next_type, rest_of_packet)
The protocol class that knows its payload length should rest_of_packet
where padding octets at the last of packet is truncated.
As bonus,
- fix ipv6 parser as ipv6 header doesn't have options.
It seems copy-and-paste from ipv4
- improve ipv4, tcp a bit
