[NETLINK]: Use group numbers instead of bitmasks internally
Using the group number allows increasing the number of groups without beeing limited by the size of the bitmask. It introduces one limitation for netlink users: messages can't be broadcasted to multiple groups anymore, however this feature was never used inside the kernel.
