Improve compatibility fallbacks for allocating multicast groups.

The linux-2.6 compatibility code for allocating multicast groups only
allocated a single multicast group per Generic Netlink family.  However,
OpenFlow performance is going to be better if we allocate one per OpenFlow
datapath (which are all in the same Generic Netlink family).  This commit
implements that.

Thanks to Justin for pointing out the issue.
