net: enable interface alias removal via rtnl

IFLA_IFALIAS is defined as NLA_STRING. It means that the minimal length of
the attribute is 1 ("\0"). However, to remove an alias, the attribute
length must be 0 (see dev_set_alias()).

Let's define the type to NLA_BINARY to allow 0-length string, so that the
alias can be removed.

Example:
$ ip l s dummy0 alias foo
$ ip l l dev dummy0
5: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether ae:20:30:4f:a7:f3 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    alias foo

Before the patch:
$ ip l s dummy0 alias ""
RTNETLINK answers: Numerical result out of range

After the patch:
$ ip l s dummy0 alias ""
$ ip l l dev dummy0
5: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether ae:20:30:4f:a7:f3 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
