    packets: work around delete_state() scribbling a delete message all over an IKEv2 AUTH reply
    
    During an IKEv2 AUTH reply, any old IKE SA will be replaced (switching
    interfaces? fragmentation related?) and that can lead to the old IKE
    SA scribbling its delete message all over the unsent AUTH reply the
    the global reply_buffer[].
    
    What next for the workaround?
    
    - move the save/restore to where the problematic delete is being
      called
    
      this patch does it across every delete
    
    - suppress sending a delete when replacing and old IKE SA
    
      no reason for sending the delete message, but it didn't seem to work
      using .st_ikev2_no_del though?
    
    - schedule the cleanup for after the current event has finished
    
    - eliminate the nasty evil global reply_buffer[]
