This patch improves many error messages as follows:
- For incorrect parameters, show the value of the offending parameter, rather than just say that it is incorrect
- Rephrased messages for clarity
- Rephrased to more `mainstream' english

This patch uses the new features of the kernel's netlink CAN interface
making the bus-error reporting configurable and allowing to retrieve
the CAN TX and RX bus error counters via netlink interface. Here is the
output of my test session showing how to use them:
# ip link set can0 up type can bitrate 500000 berr-reporting on
# ip -d -s link show can0
2: can0: <NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP,ECHO> mtu 16 qdisc pfifo_fast state UNKNOWN qlen 10

can <BERR-REPORTING> state ERROR-PASSIVE (berr-counter tx 128 rx 0) restart-ms 0

Furthermore, the missing support for one-shot mode has been added.
