The normal way to display masks is with a "/". Also I think it shouldn't
display the default mask to avoid breaking scripts that parse the
output.

ip should be able to parse its own output, and it would also look nicer
if I could just say "fwmark 0x1/32". fwmarkmask is really an incredible
ugly expression :)
