Since linux commit 22d6552f827e ("xfrm interface: fix management of
phydev"), phydev is not mandatory anymore.
Note that it also could be useful before the above commit to not force the
user to put a phydev (the kernel was checking it anyway).
For example, it was useful to not set it in case of x-netns, because the
phydev is not available in the current netns:
Before the patch:
$ ip netns add foo
$ ip link add xfrm1 type xfrm dev eth1 if_id 1
$ ip link set xfrm1 netns foo
$ ip -n foo link set xfrm1 type xfrm dev eth1 if_id 2
Cannot find device "eth1"
$ ip -n foo link set xfrm1 type xfrm if_id 2
must specify physical device

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:

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

Interfaces take a 'if_id' which is an interface id which can be set on
an xfrm policy as its interface lookup key (XFRMA_IF_ID).
