netlink: reduce default log levels
Reduce the default log level for netlink to LOG_INFO. This removes a
number of messages such as
> [nl_iface] dump_sa: unsupported family: 0, skipping
or
> [nl_iface] get_operstate_ether: error calling SIOCGIFMEDIA on vlan0: 22
that are useful for debugging, but not for most users.

netlink: add netlink KPI to the kernel by default
This change does the following:
Base Netlink KPIs (ability to register the family, parse and/or
write a Netlink message) are always present in the kernel. Specifically,
* Implementation of genetlink family/group registration/removal,
some base accessors (netlink_generic_kpi.c, 260 LoC) are compiled in
unconditionally.
* Basic TLV parser functions (netlink_message_parser.c, 507 LoC) are
compiled in unconditionally.
* Glue functions (netlink<>rtsock), malloc/core sysctl definitions
(netlink_glue.c, 259 LoC) are compiled in unconditionally.
* The rest of the KPI _functions_ are defined in the netlink_glue.c,
but their implementation calls a pointer to either the stub function
or the actual function, depending on whether the module is loaded or not.
This approach allows to have only 1k LoC out of ~3.7k LoC (current
sys/netlink implementation) in the kernel, which will not grow further.
It also allows for the generic netlink kernel customers to load
successfully without requiring Netlink module and operate correctly
once Netlink module is loaded.
