Subject: iproute2: l2tp support

I updated the latest iproute2 in git to include support for L2TP.
It is based on James's code but instead of using libnl, it uses netlink
directly (like I asked when rejecting the original patch).

In order to make netlink code in iproute2 cleaner, several libnetlink
have been updated.
  * unused junk argument to rtnl_dump_filter and rtnl_talk have
    been removed.
  * addattr_xx functions for building attributes added.
  * rta_getattr_XXX inline functions for the common case of
    looking at basic type attributes

This will show up in 3.2 version of iproute2 which is ready and
waiting for kernel release.
