1. Allow passing args up to GenericNetlinkSocket constructor …

   Currently, most subclasses of GenericNetlinkSocket do not pass unused
   args up to GenericNetlinkSocket.__init__.
   
   One use case of this is to pass fileno= with an existing file descriptor
   that was opened in another process/network namespace.
   
   This patch fixes the following subclasses
   
     - EventSocket
     - NL80211
     - DevlinkSocket
     - L2tp
     - WireGuard
   
   by passing up *args and **kwargs.
   
   We also fix TaskStats by simply removing the __init__ method that just
   calls super.
   
   We did not need to fix MPTCP and NlEthtool as they don't overwrite
   __init__.
