[NETLINK]: fib_lookup() via netlink 



Below is a more generic patch to do fib_lookup via netlink. For others 
we should say that we discussed this as a way to verify route selection.
It's also possible there are others uses for this.

In short the fist half of struct fib_result_nl is filled in by caller 
and netlink call fills in the other half and returns it.

In case anyone is interested there is a corresponding user app to compare 
the full routing table this was used to test implementation of the LC-trie.
