When we add an action to a filter, its lifetime becomes
same with the filter. So in case user frees it before
us, we could just grab a reference here.

Currently we use memcpy() to copy the peer rtnl_link for veth device,
this is wrong, we should do deep copy by calling nl_object_clone()

Older kernels don't accept receiving unknown netlink attributes.
See net/core/rtnetlink.c, rtnetlink_rcv_msg(). This was fixed by kernel
commit 661d2967b3f1b34eeaa7e212e7b9bbe8ee072b59.
As a workaround, only set the additional attributes, when the user
provided flags that makes this necessary and useful.

libnl used 'inetdevice.h' for the IPV4_DEVCONF_* names, which the kernel
in the meantime moved to public user space API and are now defined in 'ip.h'.
As a first step, rename the file 'inetdevice.h'.

Take 'include/uapi/linux/snmp.h' from current kernel v3.13
(commit d8ec26d7f8287f5788a494f56e8814210f0e64be).
The header file added new values for IPSTATS_MIB_* and ICMP6_MIB_*, but
more importantly, the kernel broke user space API by reordering enum values in
IPSTATS_MIB_*. Add a workaround when parsing IFLA_PROTINFO trying to
be compatible with both older and newer kernels.
Note that this workaround might fail for some specific kernel versions by
assuming the old enum value mapping, although the kernel version already
contains the API change. In this case rtnl_link_get_stat() mixes up
values.

Older kernel version might have fewer values defined, so they would send
netlink messages that got rejected. Only check that at least one value
got sent.
This is especially grave as libnl uses an internal copy of the
kernel header files. Thus not only it is bound to the installed kernel
headers but to the libnl internal header copies that might easily be out
of sync with the kernel.
This affects IFLA_PROTINFO, inet6_parse_protinfo():
- tb[IFLA_INET6_CONF], expecting DEVCONF_MAX
- tb[IFLA_INET6_STATS], expecting __IPSTATS_MIB_MAX
- tb[IFLA_INET6_ICMP6STATS], expecting __ICMP6_MIB_MAX
and IFLA_AF_SPEC, inet_parse_af():
- tb[IFLA_INET_CONF], expecting IPV4_DEVCONF_MAX

rtnl_route_build_msg() should allow the user to set the route scope
explicitly to RT_SCOPE_NOWHERE.
This is useful for IPv4 routes, because when deleting a route,
the kernel requires the scope to match, unless the scope is set to
RT_SCOPE_NOWHERE. Thus by setting the scope to RT_SCOPE_NOWHERE,
the user can delete a route, even without knowing its scope.
rtnl_route_build_msg() should only try to guess the scope, if it was
not explicitly specified.

It is complicated to cache tc actions, they are different
from tc qdisc's and filters by design. So, it is simple
if we just don't cache them.
This patch only removes the tc action cache allocation API.
We still need to bypass the libnl cache layer from scratch,
but that would not break ABI any more, therefore we can do
it later.
