lib: use MSG_PEEK by default for nl_recvmsgs()
The MSG_PEEK API of recvmsg() should be avoid because it requires an additional syscall. But worse is to choose a too small buffer size and failing to receive the message. A user who is aware of the issue can avoid MSG_PEEK by either nl_socket_disable_msg_peek()/nl_socket_enable_msg_peek() or by setting a buffer size via nl_socket_set_msg_buf_size(). By default however we now use MSG_PEEK. This is more important since commit 90c6ebec9bd7a where the link dump request can be rather large. Signed-off-by: Thomas Haller <thaller@redhat.com>
