ethtool: provide link settings with LINKINFO_GET request
Implement LINKINFO_GET netlink request to get basic link settings provided by ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS and ETHTOOL_GSET ioctl commands. This request provides settings not directly related to autonegotiation and link mode selection: physical port, phy MDIO address, MDI(-X) status, MDI(-X) control and transceiver. LINKINFO_GET request can be used with NLM_F_DUMP (without device identification) to request the information for all devices in current network namespace providing the data.
