mptcp: drop skb if MPTCP skb extension allocation fails

When skb_ext_add(skb, SKB_EXT_MPTCP) fails in mptcp_incoming_options(),
we used to return true, letting the segment proceed through the TCP
receive path without a DSS mapping. Such segments can leave inconsistent
mapping state and trigger a mid-stream fallback to TCP, which in testing
collapsed (by artificially forcing failures in skb_ext_add) throughput
to zero.

Return false instead so the TCP input path drops the skb (see
tcp_data_queue() and step-7 processing). This is the safer choice
under memory pressure: it preserves MPTCP correctness and provides
backpressure to the sender.

Control packets remain unaffected: ACK updates and DATA_FIN handling
happen before attempting the extension allocation, and tcp_reset()
continues to ignore the return value.

With this change, MPTCP continues to work at high throughput if we
artificially inject failures into skb_ext_add.
