net-shapers: implement NL get operation

Introduce the basic infrastructure to implement the net-shaper
core functionality. Each network devices carries a net-shaper cache,
the NL get() operation fetches the data from such cache.

The cache is initially empty, will be fill by the set()/group()
operation implemented later and is destroyed at device cleanup time.

The net_shaper_fill_handle(), net_shaper_ctx_init(), and
net_shaper_generic_pre() implementations handle generic index type
attributes, despite the current caller always pass a constant value
to avoid more noise in later patches using them with different
attributes.
