Currently, drivers can only tell whether the link is up/down using
LINKSTATE_GET, but no additional information is given.
Add attributes to LINKSTATE_GET command in order to allow drivers
to expose the user more information in addition to link state to ease
the debug process, for example, reason for link down state.
Extended state consists of two attributes - link_ext_state and
link_ext_substate. The idea is to avoid 'vendor specific' states in order
to prevent drivers to use specific link_ext_state that can be in the future
common link_ext_state.
The substates allows drivers to add more information to the common
link_ext_state. For example, vendor can expose 'Autoneg' as link_ext_state
and add 'No partner detected during force mode' as link_ext_substate.
If a driver cannot pinpoint the extended state with the substate
accuracy, it is free to expose only the extended state and omit the
substate attribute.

When getting SQI or maximum SQI value fails in linkstate_prepare_data(), we
must not return without calling ethnl_ops_complete(dev) as that could
result in imbalance between ethtool_ops ->begin() and ->complete() calls.

Implement LINKSTATE_GET netlink request to get link state information.
At the moment, only link up flag as provided by ETHTOOL_GLINK ioctl command
is returned.
LINKSTATE_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.
