As discussed before, this patch provides userland with a way to access
relevant options in Router Advertisements, after they are processed and
validated by the kernel. Extra options are processed in a generic way;
this patch only exports RDNSS options described in RFC5006, but support
to control which options are exported could be easily added.

A new rtnetlink message type is defined, to transport Neighbor Discovery
options, along with optional context information. At the moment only
the address of the router sending an RDNSS option is included, but
additional attributes may be later defined, if needed by new use cases.
