ipv6: Add flow label to route get requests
The default IPv6 multipath hash policy takes the flow label into account
when calculating a multipath hash and previous patches added a flow
label selector to IPv6 FIB rules.
Allow user space to specify a flow label in route get requests by adding
a new netlink attribute and using its value to populate the "flowlabel"
field in the IPv6 flow info structure prior to a route lookup.
Deny the attribute in RTM_{NEW,DEL}ROUTE requests by checking for it in
rtm_to_fib6_config() and returning an error if present.
A subsequent patch will use this capability to test the new flow label
selector in IPv6 FIB rules.
