bpf.c: support loopback writes when BIOCSHDRCMPLT is set

Following changes in r. 1.249 "bpf: support sending packets on loopback
interfaces", also allow for this to succeed when the "header complete"
flag is set, which is the practice of some tools, e.g., tcpreplay and
Scapy. With this change, both of those example tools now work, e.g.,
Scapy passes "L3bpfSocket - send and sniff on loopback" in its test
suite.

There are several ways of addressing this issue; this commit is
intended to be the most conservative and consistent with the previous
changes. (E.g., FreeBSD instead has special handling of this condition
in its if_loop.c.)
