Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 00/11] 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 5.

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

As mentioned in patch 7, encode support is not yet implemented in ynl
and support for sub-message selectors at a different nest level from the
key attribute is not yet supported. I plan to work on these in folloup
patches.

Patches 1-4 are cleanups and fixes in ynl
Patches 5-7 add sub-message support to the schema and ynl with
documentation updates.
Patch 8 adds binary and pad support to structs in netlink-raw.
Patches 9-10 contain specs that use the sub-message attribute type.
Patch 11 updates ynl-gen-rst to include sub-messages

Changes since v1: (all reported by Jakub Kicinski, thanks!)

 - Describe sub-messages in netlink docs
 - Cleaned up unintended indent changes
 - Cleaned up rt-link sub-message definitions
