There is currently no way to report via extack in a structured way that an attribute is missing. This leads to families resorting to string messages. Add a pair of attributes - @offset and @type for machine-readable way of reporting missing attributes. The @offset points to the nest which should have contained the attribute, @type is the expected nla_type. The offset will be skipped if the attribute is missing at the message level rather than inside a nest. User space should be able to figure out which attribute enum (AKA attribute space AKA attribute set) the nest pointed to by @offset is using.
