netlink: Add new netlink_release function
A new function netlink_release is added in netlink_sock to store the
protocol's release function. This is called when the socket is deleted.
This can be supplied by the protocol via the release function in
netlink_kernel_cfg. This is being added for the NETLINK_CONNECTOR
protocol, so it can free it's data when socket is deleted.
