rtnetlink: Fix message size calculation for link messages
nlmsg_total_size() calculates the length of a netlink message
including header and alignment. nla_total_size() calculates the
space an individual attribute consumes which was meant to be used
in this context.
Also, ensure to account for the attribute header for the
IFLA_INFO_XSTATS attribute as implementations of get_xstats_size()
seem to assume that we do so.
The addition of two message headers minus the missing attribute
header resulted in a calculated message size that was larger than
required. Therefore we never risked running out of skb tailroom.
