====================
tools: ynl: couple of cmdline enhancements

This is part of the original "netlink: specs: devlink: add the rest of
missing attribute definitions" set which was rejected [1]. These three
patches enhances the cmdline user comfort, allowing to pass flag
attribute with bool values and enum names instead of scalars.
