build: add attribute header size to total attribute length
This patch adds the size of the attribute header (4 bytes) to the length field of netattr. This fixes a possible invalid memory access in malformed messages. This change is included in the set of scheduled changes for 0.9.9 that break backward compatibility. This patch also removes a memset of 4096 by one to initialize the headers and the netattr paddings. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
