This is the regular release of iproute2 corresponding to the 7.0 kernel.

The main addition is `cake_mq` support for tc-cake, enabling CAKE on
multiqueue devices. The `dpll` command gained mode setting and
fractional frequency offset display in parts-per-trillion.

Devlink now supports displaying and resetting parameters to defaults.

The `ss` tool saw several cleanups: trailing whitespace in non-TTY
output, suppressed netlink errors for unsupported protocols, and
proper command name escaping.

The JSON writer gained control characterescaping.

Eric Biggers replaced the AF_ALG SHA-1 in legacy BPF with a
userspace implementation.

Chen Linxuan eliminated redundant mounts in
`ip netns`, and leftover `/usr/lib/route2` references were removed.

Matthieu Baerts added interface name display and colored output to
MPTCP monitor.

A large batch of man page fixes addressed grammar and
style across `dcb`, `devlink`, `netshaper`, `tipc`, `vdpa`, `rdma`,
and `ss`.
