It does not appear possible to correctly configure the number of rx/tx queues on a veth pair.

When creating a veth pair like so:

link := nl.Veth{
	LinkAttrs: nl.LinkAttrs{
		Name:  "outer0",
		NumRxQueues: 16,
		NumTxQueues: 16,
	},
	PeerName: "inner0",
}

I would expect the outcome to be equivalent to the following ip command:

ip link add outer0 numrxqueues 16 numtxqueues 16 type veth peer inner0 numrxqueues 16 numtxqueues 16

However, this library actually performs the equivalent of the following ip command:

ip link add outer0 numrxqueues 16 numtxqueues 16 type veth peer inner0

The problem seems to be here, where the NumRxQueues/NumTxQueues attributes are not applied to the veth peer interface:
