Sometimes nested netlink attributes are just used as arrays, with the nla_type() of each not being used; we have this in nl80211 and e.g. NFTA_SET_ELEM_LIST_ELEMENTS. Add the ability to validate this type of message directly in the policy, by adding the type NLA_NESTED_ARRAY which does exactly this: require a first level of nesting but ignore the attribute type, and then inside each require a second level of nested and validate those attributes against a given policy (if present). Note that some nested array types actually require that all of the entries have the same index, this is possible to express in a nested policy already, apart from the validation that only the one allowed type is used.
