Introduce some basic infrastructure to perform ethtool operations via netlink. As a proof of concept, implement the pause settings. Netlink has some advantages over ioctl(): - it can be easily extended with new attributes; - it can return descriptive error messages via the extended ack mechanism. For example, when setting the ring parameters to a value outside the allowed range, userspace receives error code -EINVAL and message "requested ring size exceeds maximum". ioctl() gets only -EINVAL, which is shared among many error reasons; - since it's possible to specify an ifindex in the request, there are no race conditions when the interface name changes; New ethtool API is available only via netlink; however it makes sense to start using netlink also for the old API that NM is already using (pause, eee, rings, etc.) over ioctl() because of the advantages described above.
