    netlink/route: provide pre-2.6.19 Linux compat shim
    
    The old Linux used 8-bit rtm_table field of the RTM_NEWROUTE message to
    specify routing table id.  Modern netlink uses RTA_TABLE 32-bit attribute.
    
    Unfortunately, there is modern software (namely bird) that would prefer
    the old API as long as the routing table id fits into 8-bit.
