Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/3] tools: ynl-gen: support sub-types for binary attributes

Binary attributes have sub-type annotations which either indicate
that the binary object should be interpreted as a raw / C array of
a simple type (e.g. u32), or that it's a struct.

Use this information in the C codegen instead of outputting void *
for all binary attrs. It doesn't make a huge difference in the genl
families, but in classic Netlink there is a lot more structs.
