Subject: [PATCH] sd-netlink: don't treat NULL as root type-system

Explicitly export the root type-system to the type-system callers. This
avoids treating NULL as root, which for one really looks backwards (NULL
is usually a leaf, not root), and secondly prevents us from properly
debugging calling into non-nested types.

Also rename the root to "type_system_root". Once we support more than
rtnl, well will have to revisit that, anyway.
