Implement GET_SETTINGS netlink request to get link settings and link mode information provided by ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS ioctl command. The information in SET_SETTINGS message sent as reply is divided into two parts: autonegotiation, speed, duplex and supported, advertised and peer advertised link modes when ETH_SETTINGS_IM_LINKMODES flag is set in the request and other settings when ETH_SETTINGS_IM_LINKINFO is set. Send notification in the same format as the reply message when relevant fields are modified using the ioctl interface (ETHTOOL_SLINKSETTINGS or ETHTOOL_SSET command).
