This patch modifies ifstat to use the new RTM_GETSTATS api
to query stats from the kernel. In the process this also
moves ifstat to use 64 bit stats.
Breaks old kernels? May need to keep backward compat of
RTM_NEWLINK and even new main struct for GETSTATS.
yes, i was wondering about that. v2 coming. If GETSTATS fails, I will fallback to RTM_NEWLINK.

thanks!
