aab3661bd2 tipc: change family attribute from u32 to u16
commit 28033ae4e0f ("net: netlink: Update attr validation to require
exact length for some types") introduces a stricter control on attributes
of type NLA_U* and NLA_S*.

Since the tipc tool is sending a family attribute of u32 instead of as
expected u16 the tool is now effectively broken.

We fix this by changing the type of the said attribute.

f043759dd4 tipc: add new TIPC configuration tool
tipc is a user-space configuration tool for TIPC (Transparent
Inter-process Communication). It utilizes the TIPC netlink API in the
kernel to fetch data or perform actions.

The tipc tool has somewhat similar syntax to the ip tool meaning that
users of the ip tool should not feel that unfamiliar with this tool.
