Usually the peer of a veth device is moved to a new netns
after creation, so add a pid parameter to rtnl_link_veth_add().

This provides support for the new bridging attributes provided
in IFLA_PROTINFO while maintaining backwards compatibility
with older kernels.
A set of new API functions are exported to access the bridging
information. rtnl_link_bridge_has_ext_info() can be used to
check whether a bridge object has been constructed based on
the newly available attributes or the old message format.

Some projects seem to have mistakenly included the private
API headers without actually needing them.
Provide dummy headers referring to the real headers to
provide backwards compatibility.

This patch adds new operation to compare link af_data.
ao_compare is similar to object oo_compare operation.
This op can be used when two links are compared
for their af data. It takes two link objects in
question, an object specific bitmask defining which
attributes should be compared and flags to control
the behaviour. The function must return a bitmask
with the relevant bit set for each attribute that mismatches.

Controller Area Network (CAN) is a networking technology which has
widespread use in automation, embedded devices and automotive fields.
The socket-CAN package is an implementation of CAN protocols for Linux.
All socket-CAN related configurations are carried out through Netlink.
Add basic socket-CAN support to libnl to be able to configure CAN devices
with libnl.

Although it has been possible to create bonding devices, enslave and
release using the regular link API. The added API simplifies usage
and hides some of the compatibility logic.
F.e. enslave() and release() will both verify that the master assignment
has in fact been changed and return -NLE_OPNOTSUPP if it did not.
Also the API will make sure to use RTM_NEWLINK or RTM_SETLINK depending
on what is availble.
Examples are provided in src/ as nl-link-enslave.c and nl-link-release.c
Note: The code for this is not upstream yet.
Extends the link api to allow address family modules to fill a link
message and implements a AF_INET address family link module which
uses the new interface.
This feature isn't upstream yet. It's required to test a patch in
my local tree.
Makes the link parser understand IFLA_AF_SPEC and call the address
family specific parser.
Introduces a new API to handle address familiy specific link data such as
IFLA_PROTINFO. It provides entry hooks for parsing IFLA_PROTINFO attributes
and allows to include the parsed data when a link object is dumped.
