Subject: [PATCH net-next v1 0/6] tools/net/ynl: Add 'sub-message' support to ynl

This patchset adds a 'sub-message' attribute type to the netlink-raw
schema and implements it in ynl. This provides support for kind-specific
options attributes as used in rt_link and tc raw netlink families.

A description of the new 'sub-message' attribute type and the
corresponding sub-message definitions is provided in patch 2.

The patchset includes updates to the rt_link spec and a new tc spec that
make use of the new 'sub-message' attribute type.

Patch 1 adds missing scalar types to the netlink-raw schema
Patch 2 and 3 add sub-message support to the schema and ynl
Patch 4 adds binary and pad support to structs in netlink-raw
Patches 5 and 6 contain specs that use the sub-message attribute type
