Top level stats attributes can be netdev or global attributes: We can include string

IFLA_STATS_LINK64, (netdev)
IFLA_STATS_LINK_INET6, (netdev)
IFLA_STATS_TCP, (non-netdev, global tcp stats)
This is fine as well. It means that we cant mix netdev and non-netdev
stats or stats for multiple netdevs in the same request which would
not be the case if you nest it and have a top level attribute which
is a list of requests. That may be borderline to overengineering
though so I'm fine this as well.
Well - using a subheader which has ifindex on it for non-netdev stats
seems wrong then.
