Hello, strace community!

Project: Netlink socket parsers.

Accoplisment:
Fixed the code of decode NETLINK_ROUTE netlink attribute.

My Work Product Submission [1]. Cut and paste the TODO here.

* Read the code, fix the bug. "Given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow".
* Extend to support more netlink family protocols.
* Further decode some fields, such as cru_type, cru_mask and cru_flags.
* Further decode NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT. (libudev and kernel messages.)
* Extend or redesign general netlink attribute decoder for decode attribute that
  depend on other attribute.
