The previous man page fixup introduced a syntax error due to missing
opening bracket, which might crash some humanoid BNF parsers.

* Improve manual page synopsis and built-it help
* Use full subcommand names (e.g. 'address' and 'maddress')
* Specify when IPv4, IPv6 or both are affected
* Add lifetimes, home and nodad
* Remove any remaining excess spaces
Commit 43d29f7 substantially improves generated ip-address.8 instead of
ip-address.8.in and commit e419f2d removes the generated one losing the
improvements entirely. This commit recovers the lost changes, adapts
them to the current manual page and adds more man page and help
improvements.

* Add `can` to list of supported link types
* Document `addrgenmode`
* Document `link-netnsid`
* Document VLAN link type
* Improve VXLAN link type documentation
- Fix VXLAN srcport/dstport docs
- Document `udpcsum`, `udp6zerocsumtx` and `udp6zerocsumrx`
This is similar to command options corresponding to other NTF_* flags
already exposed to the user space (examples self/master).
Also updates bridge man page (The man page patch also includes
a fix to the 'self' entry and documents 'master' for fdb entries)

Add a start of a man-page to the misc section as a reference and
guide on (e)BPF classifier and actions. Given that tc is only tersely
documented, this is provided in the hope that users will have an
easier getting started with tc and (e)BPF. And, that there's now more
incentive for others to also start documenting their classifier and
actions as well. ;)

It is hard to quickly find what you are looking for in the output of the
ip command. Color helps.
This patch adds a '-c' flag to highlight these with individual colors:
- interface name
- ip address
- mac address
- up/down state

Two commands are added:
- ip netns list-id
- ip monitor nsid
A cache is also added to remember the association between the iproute2 netns
name (from /var/run/netns/) and the nsid.
To avoid interfering with the rth socket, a new rtnl socket (rtnsh) is used to
get nsid (we may send rtnl request during listing on rth).
Example:
$ ip netns list-id
nsid 0 (iproute2 netns name: foo)
$ ip monitor nsid
Deleted nsid 0 (iproute2 netns name: foo)
nsid 16 (iproute2 netns name: bar)

- Pull in the uapi mpls.h
- Update rtnetlink.h to include the mpls rtnetlink notification multicast group.
- Define AF_MPLS in utils.h if it is not defined from elsewhere
as is done with AF_DECnet
The address syntax for multiple mpls labels is a complete invention.
When I looked there seemed to be no wide spread convention for talking
about an mpls label stack in text for. Sometimes people did:
"{ Label1, Label2, Label3 }", sometimes people would do:
"[ label3, label2, label1 ]", and most of the time label
stacks were not explicitly shown at all.
The syntax I wound up using, so it would not have spaces and so it
would visually distinct from other kinds of addresses is.
label1/label2/label3 Where label1 is the label at the top of the label
stack and label3 is the label at the bottom on the label stack.
When there is a single label this matches what seems to be convention
with other tools. Just print out the numeric value of the mpls label.
The netlink protocol for labels uses the on the wire format for a
label stack. The ttl and traffic class are expected to be 0. Using
the on the wire format is common and what happens with other address
types. BGP when passing label stacks also uses this technique with the
exception that the ttl byte is not included making each label in a BGP
label stack 3 bytes instead of 4.

This attribute is like RTA_DST except it specifies the destination
address to place on a packet when it leaves the host. For ip based
protocols this is destination NAT and not a common part of forwarding.
For protocols like MPLS label swapping is something that typically
happens on every hop.
There is likely to be a RTA_NEWSRC at some point so RTA_NEWDST
is printed as "as to" and can be specified either as "as to"
or just "as"

The kernel now provides ids for peer netns. This patch implements a new command
'set' to assign an id.
When netns are listed, if an id is assigned, it is now displayed.

$ ip netns
