From: Jhonata Poma-Hansen <redacted>

Add a test which starts a link dump on a socket with a small receive
buffer while a link notification is still queued, after a large read
made the kernel attempt large dump skbs. The test reads like libnl
does, peeking before each read, and expects the dump to complete.
