[PATCH 1/3] virNetDevGetFamilyId: Change signature

Introduced in v3.8.0-rc1~96, the virNetDevGetFamilyId() gets
netlink family ID for passed family name (even though it's used
only for getting "devlink" ID). Nevertheless, the function
returns 0 on an error or if no family ID was found. This makes it
harder for a caller to distinguish these two. Change the retval
so that a negative value is returned upon error, zero is no ID
found (but no error encountered) and a positive value is returned
on successful translation.
