[PATCH v2] fib_rules: Added NLM_F_EXCL support to fib_nl_newrule

When adding rule with NLM_F_EXCL flag then check if the same rule exist.
If yes then exit with -EEXIST.

This is already implemented in iproute2:
	if (cmd == RTM_NEWRULE) {
		req.n.nlmsg_flags |= NLM_F_CREATE|NLM_F_EXCL;
		req.r.rtm_type = RTN_UNICAST;
	}

Tested ipv4 and ipv6 with net-next linux on qemu x86

expected behavior after patch:
localhost ~ # ip rule
0:    from all lookup local
32766:    from all lookup main
32767:    from all lookup default
localhost ~ # ip rule add from 10.46.177.97 lookup 104 pref 1005
localhost ~ # ip rule add from 10.46.177.97 lookup 104 pref 1005
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
localhost ~ # ip rule
0:    from all lookup local
1005:    from 10.46.177.97 lookup 104
32766:    from all lookup main
32767:    from all lookup default

There was already topic regarding this but I don't see any changes
merged and problem still occurs.

I suggest making the rule compare a helper function.

Also, this is going to be one of those pain points as new rule 
attributes are added - new attributes are not added to the compare. 
Perhaps a note above the fib_rule definition in net/fib_rules.h to add 
new attributes to the fib_rule compare function?

missing a namespace (fr_net) compare. Everything else is relative to
it.

I suggest making the rule compare a helper function.

I also explicitly asked the submitted to use a helper function.
