ipv6: sr: Prepare HMAC key ahead of time

Prepare the HMAC key when it is added to the kernel, instead of
preparing it implicitly for every packet.  This significantly improves
the performance of seg6_hmac_compute().  A microbenchmark on x86_64
shows seg6_hmac_compute() (with HMAC-SHA256) dropping from ~1978 cycles
to ~1419 cycles, a 28% improvement.

The size of 'struct seg6_hmac_info' increases by 128 bytes, but that
should be fine, since there should not be a massive number of keys.
