Title:
  iproute2: frr route protocols are not converted to string on xenial

Status in iproute2 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  FRR puts its own proto numbers when inserting a route, example:
  $ ip route
  [snip]
  2.2.2.0/24 via 3.3.3.2 dev eth2  proto 188  metric 20 

  iproute2 defines some protocols, but not all:
  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/iproute2/iproute2.git/tree/etc/iproute2/rt_protos

  A patch has been pushed upstream so that external applications can define their protocols numbers:
  719e331ff619 ("Add support for rt_protos.d")
