From: Jiri Pirko <jiri@nvidia.com>

Some nested attributes, like devlink-fmg, contain plain list of
attributes that may repeat. Current decode rsp implementation is
dictionary which causes duplicate attributes to be re-written.

To solve this, introduce "nested-list" flag for "nest" type which
indicates the _decode() function to use list instead of dictionary and
store each decoded attribute into this list as a separate dictionary.
