[PATCHv2 lksctp-tools 0/3] add the support for sctp_sendv and sctp_recvv

[Xin Long]

sctp_sendv and sctp_recvv provide an extensible way for an application
to communicate different snd attributes to the SCTP stack when sending
a message, and to pass up different SCTP attributes associated with a
received message to an application when receiving a message, as said
in rfc6458.

This patchset is to add the sctp_sendv and sctp_recvv functions, their
man docs and the function testing for them. These are based on linux
kernel-4.16.

v1->v2:
  - remove the extra loop and if-else checks from sctp_sendv() by
    pre-allocating a maximum buffer, according to Neil's suggestion.

Xin Long (3):
  lib: add the core functions for sctp_sendv and sctp_recvv
  func_tests: add the testing for sctp_sendv and sctp_recvv
  man: add the man docs for sctp_sendv and sctp_recvv

Applied, thanks.
