    https://github.com/thom311/libnl/blob/libnl3_2_25/lib/nl.c#L299

    Transmits the message specified in `hdr` over the Netlink socket using Python's socket.sendmsg().

    ATTENTION: The `msg` argument will *not* be used to derive the message payload that is being sent out. The `msg`
    argument is *only* passed on to the `NL_CB_MSG_OUT` callback. The caller is responsible to initialize the `hdr`
    struct properly and have it point to the message payload and socket address.

    This function uses `nlmsg_set_src()` to modify the `msg` argument prior to invoking the `NL_CB_MSG_OUT` callback to
    provide the local port number.

    This function triggers the `NL_CB_MSG_OUT` callback.

    ATTENTION: Think twice before using this function. It provides a low level access to the Netlink socket. Among other
    limitations, it does not add credentials even if enabled or respect the destination address specified in the `msg`
    object.

    Positional arguments:
    sk -- Netlink socket (nl_sock class instance).
    msg -- Netlink message to be sent (nl_msg class instance).
    hdr -- sendmsg() message header (msghdr class instance).

    Returns:
    Number of bytes sent on success or a negative error code.
