This adds support for slightly less output than is normally provided by
'ip link show' and 'ip addr show'. This is a bit better when you have a
host with lots of interfaces. Sample output:
$ ip -br link show
lo UNKNOWN 00:00:00:00:00:00 <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP>
p2p1 UP 08:00:27:ee:0b:3b <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP>

p9p1 UP 08:00:27:76:d9:75 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP>

v3: Better field width estimation (except netdev names to keep output at a
decent width) and whitespace fixup.

* Add `can` to list of supported link types
* Document `addrgenmode`

* Document VLAN link type
* Improve VXLAN link type documentation
- Fix VXLAN srcport/dstport docs
- Document `udpcsum`, `udp6zerocsumtx` and `udp6zerocsumrx`
This patch adds support to set and display protodown on a switch port. The
switch driver can handle this error state by doing a phys down on the port.
One example user space application setting this flag is a multi-chassis
LAG application to handle split-brain situation on peer-link failure.
Example:
root@net-next:~# ip link set eth1 protodown on
root@net-next:~/iproute2# ip link show eth1
4: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether 52:54:00:12:35:01 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff protodown on
root@net-next:~/iproute2# ip link set eth1 protodown off
root@net-next:~/iproute2# ip link show eth1
4: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000

o "min_tx_rate" option has been added for minimum Tx rate. Hence, for
consistent naming, "max_tx_rate" option has been introduced for maximum
Tx rate.
o Change in v2: "rate" can be used along with "max_tx_rate".
When both are specified, "max_tx_rate" should override.
o Change in v3:
* IFLA_VF_RATE: When IFLA_VF_RATE is used, and user has given only one of
min_tx_rate or max_tx_rate, reading of previous rate limits is done in
userspace instead of in kernel space before ndo_set_vf_rate.
* IFLA_VF_TX_RATE: When IFLA_VF_TX_RATE is used, min_tx_rate is always read
in kernel space. This takes care of below scenarios:
(1) when old tool sends "rate" but kernel is new (expects min and max)
(2) when new tool sends only "rate" but kernel is old (expects only "rate")
o Change in v4 as suggested by Stephen Hemminger:
* As per iproute policy, input and output formats should match. Changing display
of max_tx_rate and min_tx_rate options accordingly.

This patch allows setting VXLAN destination to unicast address.
It allows that VXLAN can be used as peer-to-peer tunnel without
multicast.
v6: change back to the v3 except for using new attribute because
replacing command-line parameters breaks existing scripts,
based by Cong Wang's comments.
v5: rebase on the latest.
v4: replace "group" with "remote" based by David Stevens's comments.
v3: move a new attribute REMOTE into the last of an enum list
based by Stephen Hemminger's comments.
fix the usage to show explicitly that both "remote" and "group"
cannot be specified, based by Ben Hutchings's comments.

Reported by Ivan Vilata i Balaguer <ivan@selidor.net>
found that the description of the `ip link add` command in the manpage
is outdated regarding the compulsory `link DEVICE` option.
For instance, `ip link help` says:
Usage: ip link add [link DEV] [ name ] NAME
...
But the manpage still says:
ip link add link DEVICE [ name ] NAME
(Trying to provide a `link` option e.g. under an LXC container can frustrate
the creation of dummy devices which don't need an actual device.)
The syntax of the "ip link help" output was fixed in commit
"iproute2: Fix usage and man page for 'ip link'" (a22e92951d).
This updates the manpage to mark "link DEVICE" as an optional
argument there as well.
