Subject: [PATCH iproute2-next 0/8] ip: Introduce and use get_addr_rta()

Now we enhance get_addr() to return additional
information about address (e.g. if it unspecified
or multicast) we want to have same functionality
for attributes in netlink message.

Introduce and use get_addr_rta() that parses
given netlink attribute into @inet_prefix
data structure in the same way similar get_addr()
parses address from it's string representation.

Use attribute length to guess address family:
force it by giving non AF_UNSPEC @family to
get_addr_rta() to ensure address is of expected
family.

This is next step in ipv4 and ipv6 modules
unification to prepare for merge in the future.

Any comments, suggestions and criticism as always
welcome.

Thanks,
Serhii
