We default to raising an exception when unknown attrs are found
to make sure those are noticed during development.
When YNL CLI is "installed" and used by sysadmins erroring out
is not going to be helpful. It's far more likely the user space
is older than the kernel in that case, than that some attr is
misdefined or missing.

When sending YNL CLI output into a pipe, closing the pipe causes a
BrokenPipeError. E.g. running the following and quitting less:
./tools/net/ynl/pyynl/cli.py --family rt-link --dump getlink | less
Traceback (most recent call last):

BrokenPipeError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe
Consolidate the try block for ops and notifications, and gracefully
handle the BrokenPipeError by adding an exception handler to the
consolidated try block.

Add a --family option to ynl to specify the spec by family name instead
of file path, with support for searching in-tree and system install
location and a --list-families option to show the available families.
./tools/net/ynl/pyynl/cli.py --family rt_addr --dump getaddr

Move python code to a separate directory so it can be
packaged as a python module. Updates existing references
in selftests and docs.
Also rename ynl-gen-[c|rst] to ynl_gen_[c|rst], avoid
dashes as these prevent easy imports for entrypoints.
