Newer kernels can dump per-op policies, so print out the new
mapping attribute to indicate which op has which policy.
v2:
* print out both do/dump policy idx
v3:
* fix userspace API which renumbered after patch rebasing

Support dumping the netlink policy of a given generic netlink
family, the policy (with any sub-policies if appropriate) is
exported by the kernel in a general fashion.

This is simpler and cleaner, and avoids having to include the header
from every file where the functions are used. The prototypes of the
internal implementation are in this header, so utils.h will have to be
included anyway for those.

No function, filter, or print function uses the sockaddr_nl arg,
so just drop it.

This is an update for 460c03f3f3 ("iplink: double the buffer size also in
iplink_get()"). After update, we will not need to double the buffer size
every time when VFs number increased.
With call like rtnl_talk(&rth, &req.n, NULL, 0), we can simply remove the
length parameter.
With call like rtnl_talk(&rth, nlh, nlh, sizeof(req), I add a new variable
answer to avoid overwrite data in nlh, because it may has more info after
nlh. also this will avoid nlh buffer not enough issue.
We need to free answer after using.

This patch converts spots where manual buffer termination was missing to
strlcpy() since that does what is needed.

This big patch was compiled by vimgrepping for memset calls and changing
to C99 initializer if applicable. One notable exception is the
initialization of union bpf_attr in tc/tc_bpf.c: changing it would break
for older gcc versions (at least <=3.4.6).
Calls to memset for struct rtattr pointer fields for parse_rtattr*()
were just dropped since they are not needed.
The changes here allowed the compiler to discover some unused variables,
so get rid of them, too.

There have been several instances where response from kernel
has overrun the stack buffer from the caller. Avoid future problems
by passing a size argument.
Also drop the unused peer and group arguments to rtnl_talk.
Both rtnl_talk and rtnl_dump had a callback for handling portions
of netlink message that do not match the correct pid or seq.
But this callback was never used by any part of iproute2 so remove
it.
Update the included version of the genetlink.h header to the multicast
group API and make the generic netlink controller part show multicast
groups where applicable. Also fix two typos.

The controller is the only module using this at the moment.
Thomas has a sample user of genetlink that would fit here; bug him
for it.
