batman-adv: Add network_coding mesh genl configuration
The mesh interface can use (in an homogeneous mesh) network coding, a mechanism that aims to increase the overall network throughput by fusing multiple packets in one transmission. The BATADV_CMD_SET_MESH/BATADV_CMD_GET_MESH commands allow to set/get the configuration of this feature using the BATADV_ATTR_NETWORK_CODING_ENABLED attribute. Setting the u8 to zero will disable this feature and setting it to something else is enabling this feature.
