"ip maddr show" prints link-layer, IPv4 and IPv6 entries. The IPv4 and
IPv6 ones come over netlink today, with IFA_MC_USERS for the user count.
The link-layer list, dev->mc, is only exported via /proc/net/dev_mcast,
so iproute2 and other users still parse procfs for it.

This series adds the AF_PACKET family to RTM_GETMULTICAST so that the
link-layer multicast addresses are reported the same way. Patch 3 dumps
dev->mc in the ifaddrmsg format of the IPv4 and IPv6 dumps: IFA_MULTICAST
carries the address, IFA_MC_USERS the reference count and a new
IFA_F_GLOBAL flag marks entries added explicitly, the "static" column of
/proc/net/dev_mcast. ifa_index limits the dump to one device and
IFA_TARGET_NETNSID selects another netns. Patch 2 adds a generation
counter for dev->mc changes so a multi-part dump reports
NLM_F_DUMP_INTR like the IPv4 and IPv6 ones. Patches 1 and 4 update the
rt-addr spec and patch 5 adds a selftest.

AF_PACKET dumps returned -EOPNOTSUPP before, so iproute2 can keep the
procfs fallback for older kernels. The iproute2 side is ready and will
be posted once this is in.

Changes in v7:
- Add a per netns generation counter bumped on dev->mc changes and fold
  it into cb->seq, dev_base_seq alone did not cover the dumped entries
- Sample cb->seq under the address lock of each device and again when a
  dump round ends, so the NLMSG_DONE check sees a change too
- Drop the Reviewed-by tag of patch 3 after these changes

Changes in v6:
- Move the dump to net/core/dev_addr_lists.c next to the dev->mc
  helpers
- Stamp cb->seq from dev_base_seq and check dump consistency
- Let an unexpected dump error propagate instead of skipping
- Check for an address only present in the peer netns in the
  target-netnsid selftest, the peer and local ifindex can be equal
- Document the ifa-index filter and the zero header fields in the spec

Changes in v5:
- Filter the target-netnsid selftest dump by ifa-index, a new netns
  also contains the fallback tunnel devices

Changes in v4:
- Reset the resume offset when the device the dump stopped at is gone
- Use a tracked netns reference (put_net_track)
- Say ifa-family must be set in the spec doc, drop the AF_UNSPEC remark
- Close the netlink socket and guard the checks in the selftest
- Drop the Fixes tag

Changes in v3:
- Report the static bit as a new IFA_F_GLOBAL flag in IFA_FLAGS
  instead of IFA_F_PERMANENT
- Support IFA_TARGET_NETNSID and test it
- Describe global_use accurately, it is also set by dev_mc_add_excl()
- Fix the target-netnsid type in the rt-addr spec, as its own patch

Changes in v2:
- Always validate the request header, not only with strict checking
- Use a single "with" statement in the selftest (ruff)

The kernel parses IFA_TARGET_NETNSID as NLA_S32 and rt-link.yaml
declares its target-netnsid as s32, but rt-addr.yaml has it as binary.

A multi-part RTM_GETMULTICAST dump of dev->mc resumes by position, so
entries added or removed between two dump rounds can be skipped or
repeated. The IPv4 and IPv6 dumps report that with NLM_F_DUMP_INTR by
stamping cb->seq from a per netns generation counter combined with
dev_base_seq, see inet_base_seq().

Add the equivalent for the device multicast lists: a per netns counter
bumped whenever an entry is added to or removed from any dev->mc. The
list helpers do not know which device a list belongs to, so give
netdev_hw_addr_list an owner set for dev->mc only and bump the counter
of dev_net(owner) where entries are created and freed. That covers the
dev_mc_* helpers, both lists of a sync, the hardware sync helpers
drivers call from their rx mode callbacks or their own workers and the
reconciliation after an asynchronous rx mode update, while snapshot
and other lists have no owner and are not tracked. It is atomic since
the writers only hold the address lock of their own device.

Used by the following patch for the AF_PACKET multicast dump.

RTM_GETMULTICAST dumps IPv4 and IPv6 multicast group memberships, but
the device multicast list (dev->mc) is only available through
/proc/net/dev_mcast, so "ip maddr show" still has to parse procfs for
its link-layer entries.

Handle RTM_GETMULTICAST dumps with ifa_family set to AF_PACKET next to
the dev->mc helpers in dev_addr_lists.c and report every entry of
dev->mc in the existing ifaddrmsg format:

  - IFA_MULTICAST carries the raw link-layer address
  - IFA_MC_USERS carries the entry reference count
  - IFA_F_GLOBAL in IFA_FLAGS reports netdev_hw_addr::global_use, set
    by dev_mc_add_global() (SIOCADDMULTI) and dev_mc_add_excl()
    ("bridge fdb add ... self"), i.e. entries added explicitly rather
    than by a protocol join. This is the static column of
    /proc/net/dev_mcast
  - ifa_scope is RT_SCOPE_LINK

This covers every column of /proc/net/dev_mcast. AF_PACKET is the
family iproute2 already uses for link-layer addresses ("ip -0").

The default FDB dump also walks dev->mc, but only for Ethernet devices
without an ndo_fdb_dump of their own, so bridge, vxlan or macvlan
devices never show their multicast filter there, and it has no users
count or global_use bit. Extending it would change "bridge fdb show"
output and add NDA_* attributes.

Requests are always validated, there are no legacy users: prefixlen,
flags and scope must be zero, ifa_index selects one device and
IFA_TARGET_NETNSID is the only attribute accepted. The dump runs under
RCU and netif_addr_lock_bh() without RTNL. cb->seq is sampled from the
dev->mc generation counter and dev_base_seq under the address lock of
each device and again when a round ends, so a change since the previous
device or dump round sets NLM_F_DUMP_INTR, also when the last round
dumps nothing because the device it stopped at is gone.

Add the global flag, list the attributes the AF_PACKET dump uses and
describe how ifa-family selects IPv4, IPv6 or link-layer output for
RTM_GETMULTICAST.

Dump the link-layer multicast addresses of a dummy device and verify
that ifa_index restricts the dump to that device, that the all-hosts
address joined on link up is listed without IFA_F_GLOBAL, that an
address added with SIOCADDMULTI is listed with IFA_F_GLOBAL and
IFA_MC_USERS, and that IFA_TARGET_NETNSID dumps another netns.
