Generic netlink has the ability to autoload modules in response to a request for
a family. Currently libnl uses a GETFAMILY call with the NLM_F_DUMP flag to
list all the available families, but doing so neglects the possibility of an
autoloaded module. This patch modifies the genl code to probe the kernel for a
specific family rather than dumping a list of all the currenlty available ones,
making autoload work properly.
