NeighAttributes does not appear to support non-Ethernet link-layer addresses

[dswarbrick]

Poking around in the code, I see that NeighAttributes.decode() expects link-layer addresses to be six bytes (i.e. Ethernet MAC addresses).

func (a *NeighAttributes) decode(ad *netlink.AttributeDecoder) error {
	for ad.Next() {
		switch ad.Type() {
...
		case unix.NDA_LLADDR:
			if len(ad.Bytes()) != 6 {
				return errInvalidNeighMessageAttr
			}
			a.LLAddress = ad.Bytes()
...

It would be nice if this also supported other lengths supported by net.ParseMAC(), such as 20-byte InfiniBand link-layer addresses, allowing this package to be used in IPoIB environments.

This was an easy fix.

Thanks for reporting it!

Wow, awesome! Thank you very much for the rapid response!

My pleasure. I'll tag a new release in a minute.
