Retreive the link type from Netlink GetLink information.
Aim to return the same value as nl-link-list for example :
gre0 gre <noarp,up,running,lowerup> slave-of NONE group 0 ipgre : gre0
gretap0 ether <broadcast,multicast> slave-of NONE group 0 ipgre : gretap0
dummy0 ether 36:d5:87:cf:eb:35 <broadcast,noarp> group 0
tun0 none <pointopoint,multicast,noarp> group 0
tap0 ether 4e:ce:43:4a:82:c2 <broadcast,multicast> group 0

* Add netlink definitions for extra IFLAs
The relevant IFLA_* are defined in the kernel but not in the syscall
package.
* Parameterize the return value of loadSimpleBpf
Allow the return value of the bpf program created by loadSimpleBpf to
be specified by the caller. Before this, the value was hardcoded to 1.
* Add support for a new IFLA that enables using a bpf program as a
filter early in the driver path of some NICs.
* Add a test for set/get of an xdp program. Since currently, the XDP
IFLA is optional, check that the hardware supports it before trying to
set the field.

It looks little awkward, but should be enough for people who care about
defaults from kernel.
Fix#26
Also fixed bug with setting TxQLen for main device. It was never set
before.

Creating a link in one namespace and then moving can
be problematic since there could be a iface name conflict.
However, it is not always possible to switch into the target
namespace either -- e.g. creating a macvlan interface must
be done in the namespace of the parent interface.
