[PATCH net-next v2] wireguard: Wire-up big tcp support

Advertise GSO_MAX_SIZE as TSO max size in order support BIG TCP for wireguard.
This helps to improve wireguard performance a bit when enabled as it allows
wireguard to aggregate larger skbs in wg_packet_consume_data_done() via
napi_gro_receive(), but also allows the stack to build larger skbs on xmit
where the driver then segments them before encryption inside wg_xmit().
