net: netlink: filter particular protocols from analyzers
Fix finer-grained control and let only a whitelist of allowed netlink protocols pass, in our case related to networking. If later on, other subsystems decide they want to add their protocol as well to the list of allowed protocols they shall simply add it. While at it, we also need to tell what protocol is in use otherwise BPF_S_ANC_PROTOCOL can not pick it up (as it's not filled out).
