    netlink: fix compatibility with older netlink applications.
    
    Some apps try to provide only the non-zero part of the required message
     header instead of the full one. It happens when fetching routes or
     interface addresses, where the first header byte is the family.
    This behavior is "illegal" under the "strict" Netlink socket option,
     however there are many applications out there doing things in the
     "old" way.
    
    Support this usecase by copying the provided bytes into the temporary
     zero-filled header and running the parser on this header instead.
    
    Reported by:    Goran Mekić <meka@tilda.center>
    
    (cherry picked from commit 228c632ab3f6245df4a08d8692d49c8e12aacc27)
