Network: Bring libnl into the openbmc image
We would be writing a new app in the phosphor-netwokd
repo.
libnl would be used for IPC mechanism between kernel and
user space process.
In issue 2931 we need to talk with kernel for certain
NCSI commands(nelink) through libnl.
NCSI commands are as follows
NCSI_CMD_PKG_INFO: which returns information on packages and their
associated channels.
NCSI_CMD_SET_INTERFACE which allows a specific package or
package/channel combination to be set as the preferred choice.
NCSI_CMD_CLEAR_INTERFACE which clears any preferred setting
Partilally Resolves openbmc/openbmc#2931
