set a fixed encapsulation limit. Default is 4.
The 'inherit/STRING' or 'inherit/00..ff' syntax indicates that the TOS field of tunneled packets should be copied from the original IP header, but for non-IP packets the value STRING or 00..ff should be used instead. (This syntax is already used by 'ip tunnel show'.) Also clarify the man page and the command usage text (particularly that the TOS is not specified as a decimal number).
