The return value of the *nl_send_simple() functions is
inconsistent and not according to the documentation.
nl_send_simple() is document to return the number of bytes sent.
Other *nl_send_simple() functions are documented to return 0 on
success -- for the most part.
See also commit b70174668b which
changed behavior of nl_rtgen_request() to be according to documenation.
Don't change behavior again, only adjust the documentation.

The idea of a common handle is long revised and only misleading,
nl_handle really represents a socket with some additional
action handlers assigned to it.
Alias for nl_handle is kept for backwards compatibility.
