net: clear IP defragmentation state after returning a complete packet

During the IP defragmentation process, after the reassembly is finished
with the last packet arriving with MF=0, the reassembly state wrt.
static counters is not cleared. In case this last arriving packet with
MF=0 gets duplicated, payload bytes are mistakenly treated as hole data.

A malicious actor who can deliver fragmented IP traffic to a U-Boot
instance with CONFIG_IP_DEFRAG=y can corrupt memory via out-of-bound
writes and redirect control flow into attacker-supplied payload bytes
that already sit in `pkt_buff[]`.

Publicly available AI models are able to generate a reproducer based
on the provided information.

Fix: once the assembled packet has been handed back to the caller, mark
the reassembly state empty so that any further fragment (duplicate,
replay, or a brand-new datagram that happens to reuse the `ip_id`) goes
through the normal re-init path and rebuilds a clean hole list instead
of dereferencing payload bytes as struct hole.
