Subject: [PATCH/RFC 2/8] netlink: Allow suppression of warnings for duplicate attributes

Add a multiple field to struct nl_policy which if set suppresses
warning of duplicate attributes in nl_parse_nested().

As is the case without this patch only the last occurrence of an
attribute is stored in attrs by nl_parse_nested(). As such
if the multiple field of struct nl_policy is set then it
is up to the caller to parse the message to extract all the attributes.

This is in preparation for allowing multiple OVS_SELECT_GROUP_ATTR_BUCKET
attributes in a nested OVS_ACTION_ATTR_SELECT_GROUP attribute.
