ANN: libnl 3.6.0 released

[Thomas Haller]

Dear libnl community,

A new release of libnl3 is available: 3.6.0.

Get it from github:
  https://github.com/thom311/libnl/releases/tag/libnl3_6_0

This comes more than 2½ years after 3.5 release, with 162 patches.

There were quite some bugfixes, and the unit tests improved. There is
also new API, mostly in libnl-route-3 and libnl-nf-3. All files now use
SPDX licence identifiers. For details, please check the git history.

In the future, I intend to do releases more frequently, and tend
to merge requests fast.




Btw, there is a problem with `./configure --disable-static`. One
workaround might be to not have libcheck installed or not call `make
check`. The fix is [1], but if you apply that, you need to call
autoreconf. Alternatively, 

  sed 's/^@WITH_CHECK_TRUE@\(.*tests\/check-direct.*$\)/@WITH_CHECK_FALSE@\0/' -i Makefile.in
  ./configure --disable-static

would also hack around the problem. It depends on what exactly you are doing.
