rtnetlink: Handle IFLA_MASTER parameter when processing rtnl_newlink
Allow a master interface to be specified as one of the parameters when creating a new interface via rtnl_newlink. Previously this would require invoking interface creation, waiting for it to complete, and then separately binding that new interface to a master. In particular, this is used when creating a macvlan child interface for VRRP in a VRF configuration, allowing the interface creator to specify directly what master interface should be inherited by the child, without having to deal with asynchronous complications and potential race conditions.
