Currently the syntax for VRF related commands is rather kludgy and
inconsistent from one subcommand to another. This set adds support
for the VRF keyword to the link, address, neigh, and route commands
to improve the user experience listing data associated with vrfs,
modifying routes or doing a route lookup.

v2
- rebased to top of tree
- all checkpatch warnings are usage lines. The change in these
  patches is consistent with existing code for usage lines
Does this break current user scripts?

It seems this method will cause lots of additional netlink requests
to check if device is a vrf. Won't this impact users with 1000's of devices?
