Thomas Eizinger 7adbf9c6af refactor(connlib): remove pnet_packet (#6659)
As the final step in removing `pnet_packet`, we need to introduce `-Mut`
equivalent slices for UDP, TCP and ICMP packets. As a starting point,
introducing `UpdHeaderSliceMut` and `TcpHeaderSliceMut` is fairly
trivial. The ICMP variants are a bit trickier because those are
different for IPv4 and IPv6. Additionally, ICMP for IPv4 is quite
complex because it can have a variable header length. Additionally. for
both variants, the values in byte range 5-8 are semantically different
depending on the ICMP code.

This requires us to design an API that balances ergonomics and
correctness. Technically, an ICMP identifier and sequence can only be
set if the ICMP code is "echo request" or "echo reply". However, adding
an additional parsing step to guarantee this in the type system is quite
verbose.

The trade-off implemented in this PR allows to us to directly write to
the byte 5-8 using the `set_identifier` and `set_sequence` functions. To
catch errors early, this functions have debug-assertions built in that
ensure that the packet is indeed an ICMP echo packet.

Resolves: #6366.
