Summary: AF_NETLINK sockets basic support

Initial Comment:
This patch adds everything needed to manipulate NETLINK
addresses so that it is possible to use NETLINK sockets.

Nothing is done in the patch for autoconf stuff, even
if the following should do the trick :

There's no uploaded file!  You have to check the
checkbox labeled "Check to Upload & Attach File"
when you upload a file. In addition, even if you
*did* check this checkbox, a bug in SourceForge
prevents attaching a file when *creating* an issue.

Please try again.

(This is a SourceForge annoyance that we can do
nothing about. :-( )
