Check xenstore flag feature-ipv6-csum-offload to determine if a
guest is happy to accept IPv6 packets with only partial checksum.
Also check analogous feature-ip-csum-offload to determone if a
guest is happy to accept IPv4 packets with only partial checksum
as a replacement for a negated feature-no-csum-offload value and
add a comment to deprecate use of feature-no-csum-offload.
