From: Roopa Prabhu <ro...@cumulusnetworks.com>

This patch adds NLM_F_APPEND flag to struct nlmsg_hdr->nlmsg_flags
in newroute notifications if the route add was an append.
(This is similar to how NLM_F_REPLACE is already part of new
route replace notifications today)

This helps userspace determine if the route add operation was
an append.
