libbpf: Switch to void * casting in netlink helpers
Netlink helpers I added in 8bbb77b7c7a2 ("libbpf: Add various netlink helpers") used char * casts everywhere, and there were a few more that existed from before. Convert all of them to void * cast, as it is treated equivalently by clang/gcc for the purposes of pointer arithmetic and to follow the convention elsewhere in the kernel/libbpf.
