Right now, filtering and packet injection in wgengine depend
on a patch to wireguard-go that probably isn't suitable for upstreaming.
This need not be the case: wireguard-go/tun.Device is an interface.
For example, faketun.go implements it to mock a TUN device for testing.
This patch implements the same interface to provide filtering
and packet injection at the tunnel device level,
at which point the wireguard-go patch should no longer be necessary.
This patch has the following performance impact on i7-7500U @ 2.70GHz,
tested in the following namespace configuration:
┌────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────────────────────┐ ┌────────────────┐

Before:
---------------------------------------------------
| TCP send | UDP send |
|------------------------|------------------------|
| 557.0 (±8.5) Mbits/sec | 3.03 (±0.02) Gbits/sec |
---------------------------------------------------
After:
---------------------------------------------------
| TCP send | UDP send |
|------------------------|------------------------|
| 544.8 (±1.6) Mbits/sec | 3.13 (±0.02) Gbits/sec |
---------------------------------------------------
The impact on receive performance is similar.
