Remove the extra space between the reported ipoib attrs - use only one
space instead of two.

Every tool in the iproute2 package have one or more function to show
an help message to the user. Some of these functions print the help
line by line with a series of printf call, e.g. ip/xfrm_state.c does
60 fprintf calls.
If we group all the calls to a single one and just concatenate strings,
we save a lot of libc calls and thus object size. The size difference
of the compiled binaries calculated with bloat-o-meter is:
ip/ip:
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 5/15 up/down: 103/-4796 (-4693)
Total: Before=672591, After=667898, chg -0.70%
ip/rtmon:
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-54 (-54)
Total: Before=48879, After=48825, chg -0.11%
tc/tc:
add/remove: 0/2 grow/shrink: 31/10 up/down: 882/-6133 (-5251)

While at it, indent some strings which were starting at column 0,
and use tabs where possible, to have a consistent style across helps.

Take help function in iplink_bridge.c as an example and make other link
types' help functions similar:
* Use a single fprintf() call (if possible).
* Don't state a full command line, just "... type OPTIONS".
* Put every option in it's own line, align options by column.
* List mandatory options first.
link_veth.c is intentionally left untouched because it's 'peer' option
eats all kinds of generic link options and the help text points this out
without duplicating all the options there again.

Allow to print particular link type usage by:
ip link help [TYPE]
Currently to print usage for some link type it is needed
to use the following way:
ip link { add | del | set } type TYPE help

This patch improves many error messages as follows:
- For incorrect parameters, show the value of the offending parameter, rather than just say that it is incorrect
- Rephrased messages for clarity
- Rephrased to more `mainstream' english

Added support to ipoib rtnl ops through which one can create, configure,
query and delete IPoIB devices, for example
$ ip link add link ib0.8001 name ib0.8001 type ipoib pkey 0x8001
$ ip link add link ib0.1 name ib0.1 type ipoib mode connected
$ ip --details link show dev ib0.1
