udp: gso: do not drop small packets when PMTU reduces

Commit 4094871db1 ("udp: only do GSO if # of segs > 1") avoided GSO
for small packets. But the kernel currently dismisses GSO requests only
after checking MTU/PMTU on gso_size. This means any packets, regardless
of their payload sizes, could be dropped when PMTU becomes smaller than
requested gso_size. We encountered this issue in production and it
caused a reliability problem that new QUIC connection cannot be
established before PMTU cache expired, while non GSO sockets still
worked fine at the same time.

Ideally, do not check any GSO related constraints when payload size is
smaller than requested gso_size, and return EMSGSIZE instead of EINVAL
on MTU/PMTU check failure to be more specific on the error cause.
