Both rtnl_talk and rtnl_dump had a callback for handling portions
of netlink message that do not match the correct pid or seq.
But this callback was never used by any part of iproute2 so remove
it.

The current iproute version uses "protocol all" by default
if its not specified. This is actually only useful for creating
new filters, on deletion an unset protocol is treated as wildcard.
makes protocol accessible ..

[PATCH 2/3] [TC/FILTERS] Expose the filter protocol
Expose the filter protocol so it can be used by underlying
classifiers when they need it.

[IPROUTE]: Fix classifier help
The new check whether the user has specified a protocol makes
"ip filter <type> help" fails with "protocol is required".
This could be fixed by moving it further down, but a more user-friendly
way it to simply use ETH_P_ALL as default if nothing is specified.

In order to support these new flags add current
linux/if.h into the directory with the local copies.
This caused troubles with outdated redefinitions from net/if.h
so I've removed the dependency on it.

* "tc [class|qdisc|filter] get" doesn't exist, remove it from inline help.
* Add "replace" to "tc [class|filter] get" inline help.
* Fix "tc [class|qdisc|filter] help" output:
~$ tc class help
[snip]
Command "help" is unknown, try "tc class help".

User runs "tc monitor" (without quotes) and watches events of
addition, deletion and updates from qdiscs, classes, filters and
actions as they happen.
