[PATCH v2 0/2] lwip: add Kconfig to decode and print ICMP unreachable messages

When using commands based on UDP such as tftp or sntp, if the server is
not reachable or the service is not started on the expected port then
the command ultimately times out. However it often happens that the server
or a router sends back an ICMP Destination Unreachable message. That can
help troubleshooting. Therefore, add support to the lwIP stack and to
U-Boot to handle those packets and print a diagnostic message on the
console.

Changes in v2:
- Fix typo in subject (s/detination/destination)
- Add link to upstream pull request

  lwip: icmp: allow reporting ICMP destination unreachable
  net: lwip: add Kconfig option to show ICMP unreachable errors
