Don't mix <net/ethernet.h> and <linux/if_ether.h>.

- use proper integer types. A netlink message cannot be as large as
size_t, because the length is tracked in an uint32_t. Use the
right types.
- fields like "nlmsg_type" or "nlmsg_flags" are uint16_t. Use the
right types.
- note that nlmsg_size() still returns and accepts "int". Maybe
the should be adjusted too, but we use macros from kernel headers,
which also use int. Even if that is not the type of the length on
the binary protocol. So some of these functions still use int, to
be closer and compatible with <linux/netlink.h>.
We use clang-format for automatic formatting of our source files.
Since clang-format is actively maintained software, the actual
formatting depends on the used version of clang-format. That is
unfortunate and painful, but really unavoidable unless clang-format
would be strictly bug-compatible.
So the version that we must use is from the current Fedora release, which
is also tested by our gitlab-ci. Previously, we were using Fedora 34 with
clang-tools-extra-12.0.1-1.fc34.x86_64.
As Fedora 35 comes along, we need to update our formatting as Fedora 35
comes with version "13.0.0~rc1-1.fc35".
An alternative would be to freeze on version 12, but that has different
problems (like, it's cumbersome to rebuild clang 12 on Fedora 35 and it
would be cumbersome for our developers which are on Fedora 35 to use a
clang that they cannot easily install).
The (differently painful) solution is to reformat from time to time, as we
switch to a new Fedora (and thus clang) version.
Usually we would expect that such a reformatting brings minor changes.
But this time, the changes are huge. That is mentioned in the release
notes [1] as
Makes PointerAligment: Right working with AlignConsecutiveDeclarations. (Fixes https://llvm.org/PR27353)

We have a copy of a few linux user space headers in `src/linux-headers`.
The idea is that we want to use recent kernel API, and not depend on the
kernel UAPI headers installed on the build system (and not need to
workaround that).
However, we may not be able to simply compile them, because they too
have dependencies. For example,
../src/linux-headers/ethtool.h:1389:2: error: implicit declaration of function '__KERNEL_DIV_ROUND_UP' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
__u32 queue_mask[__KERNEL_DIV_ROUND_UP(MAX_NUM_QUEUE, 32)];
^
As workaround, don't include headers from "linux-headers" directly,
but only include the new "libnm-std-aux/nm-linux-compat.h" adapter
header, which tries to solve these incompatibilities.
