The netlink_print_neighbors() function previously used a static header format, 
which did not account for variations between the neighbor list output from 
different BATMAN routing algorithms (BATMAN_IV vs. BATMAN_V).

This patch introduces a dynamic header selection mechanism that adjusts the 
output format based on the active routing algorithm:
- For BATMAN_IV, the header is set to "IF             Neighbor              
last-seen".
- For BATMAN_V, it changes to "         Neighbor   last-seen      speed         
  IF".

This change ensures that the table header output in `batctl n` is accurate for 
both BATMAN routing algorithms.
