tun: Proper handling of IPv6 header in tun driver when TUN_NO_PI is set

By default, tun.c running in TUN_TUN_DEV mode will set the protocol of
packet to IPv4 if TUN_NO_PI is set. My program failed to work when I
assumed that the driver will check the first nibble of packet,
determine IP version and set the appropriate protocol.
