make our version of nla_for_each_nested() public

caputils/ws80211_utils.c contains a re-definition of the linux kernel's
nla_for_each_nested() macro that applies the correct casts to allow
compilation with a C++ compiler.

Make this definition public by moving it into a new wsutil/netlink.h
file. Include the kernel's original definition before we overwrite it. This
way, it's not necessary for a .c file to include wsutil/netlink.h after
the system includes.

Use our nla_for_each_nested() version in extcap/dpauxmon.c to squelch the
following compiler warning:

[1664/2251] Building C object
extcap/CMakeFiles/dpauxmon.dir/dpauxmon.c.o
../extcap/dpauxmon.c: In function ‘family_handler’:
../extcap/dpauxmon.c:168:13: warning: request for implicit conversion
        from ‘void *’ to ‘struct nlattr *’ not permitted in C++ [-Wc++-compat]
  nla_for_each_nested(mcgrp, tb[CTRL_ATTR_MCAST_GROUPS], rem_mcgrp) {
