Lorenzo points out that the generic CLI is broken for the netdev
family. When I added the support for documentation of enums
(and sparse enums) the client script was not updated.
It expects the values in enum to be a list of names,
now it can also be a dict (YAML object).

I was intending to make all the Netlink Spec code BSD-3-Clause
to ease the adoption but it appears that:
- I fumbled the uAPI and used "GPL WITH uAPI note" there
- it gives people pause as they expect GPL in the kernel
As suggested by Chuck re-license under dual. This gives us benefit
of full BSD freedom while fulfilling the broad "kernel is under GPL"
expectations.

Pretty much all families use value: 1 or reserve as unspec
the first entry in attribute set and the first operation.
Make this the default. Update documentation (the doc for
values of operations just refers back to doc for attrs
so updating only attrs).

To avoid having to repeat the entire definition of an attribute
(including the value) use the Attr object from the original set.
In fact this is already the documented expectation.

traceback.print_exception() seems tricky to call, we're missing
some argument, so re-raise instead.

The CLI script tries to validate jsonschema by default.
It's seems better to validate too many times than too few.
However, when copying the scripts to random servers having
to install jsonschema is tedious. Load jsonschema via
importlib, and let the user opt out.

There's a lot of copy and pasting going on between the "cli"
and code gen when it comes to representing the parsed spec.
Create a library which both can use.
