tools: ynl-gen: support full range of min/max checks for integer values
Extend the support to full range of min/max checks. None of the existing YNL families required complex integer validation. The support is less than trivial, because we try to keep struct nla_policy tiny the min/max members it holds in place are s16. Meaning we can only express checks in range of s16. For larger ranges we need to define a structure and link it in the policy. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231018163917.2514503-3-kuba@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
