Subject: [PATCH net-next 09/13] tools: ynl: don't use genlmsghdr in classic netlink

From: Jakub Kicinski <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 8 Apr 2025 17:03:56 -0700

Make sure the codegen calls the right YNL lib helper to start
the request based on family type. Classic netlink request must
not include the genl header.

Conversely don't expect genl headers in the responses.
