netlink: specs: rt-link: add an attr layer around alt-ifname

[ Upstream commit acf4da17deada7f8b120e051aa6c9cac40dbd83b ]

alt-ifname attr is directly placed in requests (as an alternative
to ifname) but in responses its wrapped up in IFLA_PROP_LIST
and only there is may be multi-attr. See rtnl_fill_prop_list().
