netlink: implement nla_put_in_addr and nla_put_in6_addr
IP addresses are often stored in netlink attributes. Add generic functions to do that. For nla_put_in_addr, it would be nicer to pass struct in_addr but this is not used universally throughout the kernel, in way too many places __be32 is used to store IPv4 address.
