net: Add UNIX_DIAG_UID to Netlink UNIX socket diagnostics.
This adds the ability for Netlink to report a socket's UID along with the other UNIX diagnostic information that is already available. This will allow diagnostic tools greater insight into which users control which socket. To test this, do the following as a non-root user: unshare -U -r bash nc -l -U user.socket.$$ & .. and verify from within that same session that Netlink UNIX socket diagnostics report the socket's UID as 0. Also verify that Netlink UNIX socket diagnostics report the socket's UID as the user's UID from an unprivileged process in a different session. Verify the same from a root process.
