route: remove unnecessary include of private linux/if.h
Including linux/if.h in netlink/route/link.h causes issues
in cases where libnl is used in conjuntion with other third
party libraries that include net/if.h. Seems to be a long
checkered history of symbol collisions between these two
files. As it turns out, including linux/if.h from within
netlink/route/link.h is actually unecessary. I resurrected
a forgotten path from this thread:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/libnl/2012-April/000525.html
By removing the include as the patch suggests we can get
around the nuissance of the symbol collisions.
