netlink: limit recursion depth in policy validation
Now that we have nested policies, we can theoretically recurse forever parsing attributes if a (sub-)policy refers back to a higher level one. This is a situation that has happened in nl80211, and we've avoided it there by not linking it. Add some code to netlink parsing to limit recursion depth.
