[PATCHv3 net-next 2/2] ynl: support binary/u32 sub-type for indexed-array

[Hangbin Liu <liuhangbin@gmail.com>]

Add binary/u32 sub-type support for indexed-array to display bond
arp and ns targets. Here is what the result looks like:

 # ip link add bond0 type bond mode 1 \
   arp_ip_target 192.168.1.1,192.168.1.2 ns_ip6_target 2001::1,2001::2
 # ./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/rt_link.yaml \
   --do getlink --json '{"ifname": "bond0"}' --output-json | jq '.linkinfo'

    "arp-ip-target": [
      "192.168.1.1",
      "192.168.1.2"
    ],
    [...]
    "ns-ip6-target": [
      "2001::1",
      "2001::2"
    ],
