Uses newly introduced RTM_GETROUTE flag RTM_F_FIB_MATCH
to return a matching fib route. Introduces 'fibmatch'
keyword to ip route get.

ipv4:
----
$ip route show
default via 192.168.0.2 dev eth0
10.0.14.0/24
        nexthop via 172.16.0.3  dev dummy0 weight 1
        nexthop via 172.16.1.3  dev dummy1 weight 1

$ip route get 10.0.14.2
10.0.14.2 via 172.16.1.3 dev dummy1  src 172.16.1.1
    cache

$ip route get fibmatch 10.0.14.2
10.0.14.0/24
        nexthop via 172.16.0.3  dev dummy0 weight 1
        nexthop via 172.16.1.3  dev dummy1 weight 1

ipv6:
----
$ip -6 route show
2001:db9:100::/120  metric 1024
        nexthop via 2001:db8:2::2  dev dummy0 weight 1
        nexthop via 2001:db8:12::2  dev dummy1 weight 1

$ip -6 route get 2001:db9:100::1
2001:db9:100::1 from :: via 2001:db8:12::2 dev dummy1  \
                src 2001:db8:12::1  metric 1024  pref medium

$ip -6 route get fibmatch 2001:db9:100::1
2001:db9:100::/120  metric 1024
        nexthop via 2001:db8:12::2  dev dummy1 weight 1
