net: ipv4: report multicast group user count
RTM_GETMULTICAST has been part of the rtnetlink ABI for a long time and already reports IPv4 multicast group membership through IFA_MULTICAST and IFA_CACHEINFO. It does not report how many consumers hold each membership, so userspace still has to parse /proc/net/igmp to get the Users column. Add IFA_MC_USERS as a u32 attribute carrying ip_mc_list::users in RTM_GETMULTICAST replies and entry-lifecycle notifications. This gives iproute2 enough information to migrate the IPv4 part of "ip maddr show" from procfs parsing to rtnetlink.
