- Add nft_pktinfo.pf to replace ops->pf
- Add nft_pktinfo.hook to replace ops->hooknum
This simplifies the code, makes it more readable, and likely reduces
cache line misses. Maintainability is enhanced as the details of
nft_hook_ops are of no concern to the recpients of nft_pktinfo.

For L3-proto independant rules we need to get at the L4 protocol value
directly. Add it to the nft_pktinfo struct and use the meta expression
to retrieve it.

This patch adds a new table family and a new filter chain that you can
use to attach IPv4 and IPv6 rules. This should help to simplify
rule-set maintainance in dual-stack setups.

This patch adds the x_tables compatibility layer. This allows you
to use existing x_tables matches and targets from nf_tables.
This compatibility later allows us to use existing matches/targets
for features that are still missing in nf_tables. We can progressively
replace them with native nf_tables extensions. It also provides the
userspace compatibility software that allows you to express the
rule-set using the iptables syntax but using the nf_tables kernel
components.
In order to get this compatibility layer working, I've done the
following things:
* add NFNL_SUBSYS_NFT_COMPAT: this new nfnetlink subsystem is used
to query the x_tables match/target revision, so we don't need to
use the native x_table getsockopt interface.
* emulate xt structures: this required extending the struct nft_pktinfo
to include the fragment offset, which is already obtained from
ip[6]_tables and that is used by some matches/targets.
* add support for default policy to base chains, required to emulate
x_tables.
* add NFTA_CHAIN_USE attribute to obtain the number of references to
chains, required by x_tables emulation.
* add chain packet/byte counters using per-cpu.
* support 32-64 bits compat.
For historical reasons, this patch includes the following patches
that were posted in the netfilter-devel mailing list.
From Pablo Neira Ayuso:
* nf_tables: add default policy to base chains
* netfilter: nf_tables: add NFTA_CHAIN_USE attribute
* nf_tables: nft_compat: private data of target and matches in contiguous area
* nf_tables: validate hooks for compat match/target
* nf_tables: nft_compat: release cached matches/targets
* nf_tables: x_tables support as a compile time option
* nf_tables: fix alias for xtables over nftables module
* nf_tables: add packet and byte counters per chain
* nf_tables: fix per-chain counter stats if no counters are passed
* nf_tables: don't bump chain stats
* nf_tables: add protocol and flags for xtables over nf_tables
* nf_tables: add ip[6]t_entry emulation
* nf_tables: move specific layer 3 compat code to nf_tables_ipv[4|6]
* nf_tables: support 32bits-64bits x_tables compat
* nf_tables: fix compilation if CONFIG_COMPAT is disabled
From Patrick McHardy:
* nf_tables: move policy to struct nft_base_chain
* nf_tables: send notifications for base chain policy changes
From Alexander Primak:
* nf_tables: remove the duplicate NF_INET_LOCAL_OUT
From Nicolas Dichtel:
* nf_tables: fix compilation when nf-netlink is a module
