Use a json configuration file to pass parameters to ynl to allow
for operations on multiple specs in one go. Additionally, check
this new configuration against a schema to validate it in the cli
module before parsing it and passing info to the ynl module.

Example configs would be:
{
    "yaml-specs-path": "/<path-to>/linux/Documentation/netlink/specs",
    "spec-args": {
        "ethtool.yaml": {
            "do": "rings-get",
            "json-params": {
                "header": {
                    "dev-name": "eno1"
                }
            }
        },
       "netdev.yaml": {
            "do": "dev-get",
            "json-params": {
            "ifindex": 3
            }
        }
    }
}

OR

{
    "yaml-specs-path": "/<path-to>/linux/Documentation/netlink/specs",
    "spec-args": {
        "ethtool.yaml": {
            "subscribe": "monitor",
            "sleep": 10
        },
        "netdev.yaml": {
            "subscribe": "mgmt",
            "sleep": 5
        }
    }
}
