Add support of an offset value for incremental counter and random. With
this option the sysadmin is able to start the counter to a certain value
and then apply the generated number.
Example:
meta mark set numgen inc mod 2 offset 100
This will generate marks with the serie 100, 101, 100, 101, ...

After we generate a new number, we still use the priv->counter and
store it to the dreg. This is not correct, another cpu may already
change it to a new number. So we must use the generated number, not
the priv->counter itself.

The _until_ attribute is renamed to _modulus_ as the behaviour is similar to
other expresions with number limits (ex. nft_hash).
Renaming is possible because there isn't a kernel release yet with these
changes.

nft_dump_register() should only be used with registers, not with
immediates.

This patch adds the numgen expression that allows us to generated
incremental and random numbers, this generator is bound to a upper limit
that is specified by userspace.
This expression is useful to distribute packets in a round-robin fashion
as well as randomly.
