To keep things simple we used to include the uAPI header
in the kernel in the #include <linux/$family.h> format.
This works well enough, most of the genl families should
have headers in include/net/ so linux/$family.h ends up
referring to the uAPI header, anyway. And if it doesn't
no big deal, we'll just include more info than we need.
Unless that is there is a naming conflict. Someone recently
created include/linux/psp.h which will be a problem when
supporting the PSP protocol. (I'm talking about
work-in-progress patches, but it's just a proof that assuming
lack of name conflicts was overly optimistic.)

I relicensed Netlink spec code to GPL-2.0 OR BSD-3-Clause but
we still put a slightly different license on the uAPI header
than the rest of the code. Use the Linux-syscall-note on all
the specs and all generated code. It's moot for kernel code,
but should not hurt. This way the licenses match everywhere.

I was intending to make all the Netlink Spec code BSD-3-Clause
to ease the adoption but it appears that:
- I fumbled the uAPI and used "GPL WITH uAPI note" there
- it gives people pause as they expect GPL in the kernel
As suggested by Chuck re-license under dual. This gives us benefit
of full BSD freedom while fulfilling the broad "kernel is under GPL"
expectations.

Generate and plug in the spec-based tables.
A little bit of renaming is needed in the FOU code.
