Add message descriptions needed for pretty printing of netlink messages
related to recently added features: genetlink policy dumps and pause frame
statistics. First two patches extend pretty printing code with features
used by these descriptions: support for 64-bit numeric attributes and
and enumerated types (shown as symbolic names rather than numeric values).

Michal Kubecek (4):
  netlink: support u32 enumerated types in pretty printing
  netlink: support 64-bit attribute types in pretty printed messages
  netlink: add descriptions for genetlink policy dumps
  netlink: add message descriptions for pause stats

Nice! I haven't crossed checked all the types but FWIW LGTM.
