inet_diag: support for wider protocol numbers
After commit bf976514 ("sock: Make sk_protocol a 16-bit value") the current size of 'sdiag_protocol' is not sufficient to represent the possible protocol values. This change introduces a new inet diag request attribute to let user space specify the relevant protocol number using u32 values. The attribute is parsed by inet diag core on get/dump command and the extended protocol value, if available, is preferred to 'sdiag_protocol' to lookup the diag handler. The parse attributed are exposed to all the diag handlers via the cb->data. Note that inet_diag_dump_one_icsk() is left unmodified, as it will not be used by protocol using the extended attribute.
