- existing API/ABI must stay unchanged. We cannot change parameter
types. Ad most we can add new variants that support 64 bit integers.
- rtnl_tc_calc_txtime64() and rtnl_tc_calc_bufsize64() are trivial.
We should not blow up the public API of libnl for such a thing.
If the users needs it, they can just reimplement it.
- getters should return an error code. Especially if the return type
does not support encoding an error there.
- don't add separate rs_rate64/rs_ceil64 field. Instead, extend the
"rs_rate" field of "struct rtnl_ratespec" to 64 bits. It's internal
API.
Rebased original pull request #214 on master. One commit ("xfrmi: add
IFLA_XFRM_* definitions to if_link.h") was thereby dropped as it
is no longer necessary. Otherwise, the two remaining patches applied
cleanly. Then, add two more patches to the branch before merging.

Returning the value directly as uint32_t does not leave room for an error
code. E.g. we want to indicate to the caller whether the attribute is present
or not (-NLE_NOATTR). Currenlty, the code is quite unforgiving and will just
crash/assert against invalid arguments. In theory, we could also be more forgiving
and return a error code if the link argument is invalid.
Just be more forgiving. Also, this avoids a coverity warning:
Error: FORWARD_NULL (CWE-476): [#def1]

This fixes the build with musl libc.
Additionally, several changes were made to account for changes to the
headers:
- ip_mp_alg.h was removed, since it was removed in linux commit e06e7c61
(v2.6.23), and the last use of those constants was removed in libnl
commit 535e8316.
- Uses of TCF_META_ID_SK_ROUTE_CAPS were updated to
__TCF_META_ID_SK_ROUTE_CAPS, since it was renamed in linux commit
e20e6940 (v3.1).
- Uses of IF_CARRIER_DOWN and IF_CARRIER_UP were replaced with their
values, 0 and 1, since they are not in linux/if.h (they appear to be
libnl-specific, added in libnl commit 3540e44b).
