When interfacing with the ethtool commands it's handy to
be able to use the names of the flags. Example:

    ethnl.pause_get({"header": {"dev-index": cfg.ifindex,
                                "flags": {'stats'}}})

Note that not all commands accept all the flags,
but the meaning of the bits does not change command
to command.

v2:
 - make sure we don't try to code gen enum (add enum-name:)
