tools: ynl: allow setting recv() size

Make the size of the buffer we use for recv() configurable.
The details of the buffer sizing in netlink are somewhat
arcane, we could spend a lot of time polishing this API.
Let's just leave some hopefully helpful comments for now.
This is a for-developers-only feature, anyway.
