Add a genetlink-legacy spec describing the existing family: the PDP context management commands (NEWPDP, DELPDP, GETPDP) and the GTP-U echo request (ECHOREQ), the GTPA_* attribute set, and the "gtp" multicast group. Command and attribute values are taken from include/uapi/linux/gtp.h and match it one-to-one. The request attributes of each command are the ones its handler in drivers/net/gtp.c reads, and the reply attributes the ones gtp_genl_fill_info() emits. The notifications sent on the "gtp" group are not described: they reuse the command values of the NEWPDP, DELPDP and ECHOREQ requests, which the ynl code generator cannot express with the existing uapi header. The family doc says so. Add the matching CFLAGS_gtp entry to tools/net/ynl/Makefile.deps, so the generated code is built against the tree's gtp.h instead of an older one installed on the host. This only adds the description; there is no kernel code or uapi change.
