This is not important for nl_object_identical() which only considers
the required attributes. But for using nl_object_diff() or nl_object_filter(),
all attributes must be compared.

Having a oo_keygen() function only makes sense together with a
oo_compare() function because after hashing, you still have to compare
the objects for equality (in case of hash collission).

For one, we did not clone all pointer values. Hence, every cloned
object was very broken and resulted in dangling pointers and
double free/unref.
Apparently nobody was really using this function up to now.
Also, fix the return cases for NLE_NOMEM, so that we did not assume
ownership of pointers in 'src'.

IDIAG_ATTR_* were a copy of the INET_DIAG_* extension kernel
flags. Redefining them is wrong, user space should continue
to use the values provided via the kernel headers.
Also they were misused as change flags (ce_mask), which they are not.
Deprecate the IDIAG_ATTR_* flags and redefine them to what the
originally are: INET_DIAG_*.
Also deprecated idiagnl_attrs2str() because there is already
idiagnl_exts2str(). idiagnl_attrs2str() in the sense of libnl change
flags (ce_mask) makes no sense.

When we test idiag on 3.4 kernel, we always get ERANGE.
This is because libnl has its own copy for SK_MEMINFO_*,
which is actually newer than 3.4, where SK_MEMINFO_VARS
is larger than kernel's.
We add a copy from latest kernel, so on older kernel
libnl should still compile. Note, for kernel < 3.6
we don't have SK_MEMINFO_BACKLOG, we have to relax
the minlen.
'sock_diag.h' comes from v3.17 kernel sources
(bfe01a5ba2490f299e1d2d5508cbbbadd897bbe9), file
'include/uapi/linux/sock_diag.h'.

Without ->oo_keygen, libnl will use linear search
for cache objects. This is extremely slow for idiag
when we have a lot of TCP connections. Provide a
hash function for idiag so that libnl will be able
to lookup a hashtable.

- Inet diag allows users to gather low-level socket information.
- This library provides a higher-level API for creating inetdiag requests (via
idiagnl_connect and idiagnl_send_simple) and parsing the replies (via
idiagnl_msg_parse). A cache is also provided (via idiagnl_msg_alloc_cache).
- Request and message objects provide APIs for accessing and setting the
various properties of each.
- This library also allows the user to parse the inetdiag response attributes
which contain information about traffic class, TOS, congestion, socket
memory info, and more depending on the kernel version used.
- Includes doxygen documentation.
