add support for the RTA_NEWDST attribute.
This attribute is like RTA_DST except it specifies the destination
address to place on a packet when it leaves the host. For ip based
protocols this is destination NAT and not a common part of forwarding.
For protocols like MPLS label swapping is something that typically
happens on every hop.
There is likely to be a RTA_NEWSRC at some point so RTA_NEWDST
is printed as "as to" and can be specified either as "as to"
or just "as"
