netlink: use policy dumping to check if stats flag is supported

Older kernels don't support statistics, to avoid retries
make use of netlink policy dumps to figure out which
flags kernel actually supports.

v3:
 - s/ctx/policy_ctx/
 - save the flags in nl_context to be able to reuse them,
   and not have to return errors and values from the policy
   get function
