      We need to support the various socket options relating to the IPv4 DF (Do not Fragment) flag. While IPv6 does not allow packet fragmentation, there is an equivalent socket option which disables the end to end fragmentation that IPv6 can use.

      This is required to support the PL PMTU discovery protocol used in QUIC.

      The socket option can be a jdk.net.ExtendedSocketOption
