Subject: [PATCH iproute2] ip-route: fix json formatting for metrics

Setting metrics for routes currently lead to non-parsable
json output. For example:

$ ip link add type dummy
$ ip route add 192.168.2.0 dev dummy0 metric 100 mtu 1000 rto_min 3
$ ip -j route | jq
parse error: ':' not as part of an object at line 1, column 319

Fixing this opening a json object in the metrics array and using
print_string() instead of fprintf().

This is the output for the above commands applying this patch:

$ ip -j route | jq
[
  {
    "dst": "192.168.2.0",
    "dev": "dummy0",
    "scope": "link",
    "metric": 100,
    "flags": [],
    "metrics": [
      {
        "mtu": 1000,
        "rto_min": 3
      }
    ]
  }
]

Fixes: 663c3cb23103f ("iproute: implement JSON and color output")
Fixes: 968272e791710 ("iproute: refactor metrics print")
