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)

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

We have helper routines to support nested attribute addition into
netlink buffer: use them instead of open coding.
Use addattr_nest_compat()/addattr_nest_compat_end() where appropriate.

This patch adapts the tc command line interface to allow bandwidth limits
to be specified as a percentage of the interface's capacity.
Adding this functionality requires passing the specified device string to
each class/qdisc which changes the prototype for a couple of functions: the
.parse_qopt and .parse_copt interfaces. The device string is a required
parameter for tc-qdisc and tc-class, and when not specified, the kernel
returns ENODEV. In this patch, if the user tries to specify a bandwidth
percentage without naming the device, we return an error from userspace.

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.

codel & fq_codel packet schedulers are now able to have a threshold
for CE marking packets, regardless of the drop/nodrop decision taken by
CoDel.
This is particularly useful for dctcp and variants, that do not use
traditional ECN.
Note that fq_codel users would have to specify noecn if ce_threshold is
used, otherwise results would be not very interesting, as ecn is default
on for fq_codel.

Fair Queue Codel packet scheduler
Principles :
- Packets are classified (internal classifier or external) on flows.
- This is a Stochastic model (as we use a hash, several flows might
be hashed on same slot)
- Each flow has a CoDel managed queue.
- Flows are linked onto two (Round Robin) lists,
so that new flows have priority on old ones.
- For a given flow, packets are not reordered (CoDel uses a FIFO)
- head drops only.
- ECN capability is on by default.
- Very low memory footprint (64 bytes per flow)
tc qdisc ... fq_codel [ limit PACKETS ] [ flows number ]
[ target TIME ] [ interval TIME ] [ noecn ]
[ quantum BYTES ]
