Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next

This small patchset contains three accumulated Netfilter/IPVS updates,
they are:

1) Refactorize common NAT code by encapsulating it into a helper
   function, similarly to what we do in other conntrack extensions,
   from Florian Westphal.

2) A minor format string mismatch fix for IPVS, from Masanari Iida.

3) Add quota support to the netfilter accounting infrastructure, now
   you can add quotas to accounting objects via the nfnetlink interface
   and use them from iptables. You can also listen to quota
   notifications from userspace. This enhancement from Mathieu Poirier.

This patch reworks the nf_tables API so set updates are included in
the same batch that contains rule updates. This speeds up rule-set
updates since we skip a dialog of four messages between kernel and
user-space (two on each direction), from:

 1) create the set and send netlink message to the kernel
 2) process the response from the kernel that contains the allocated name.
 3) add the set elements and send netlink message to the kernel.
 4) process the response from the kernel (to check for errors).

To:

 1) add the set to the batch.
 2) add the set elements to the batch.
 3) add the rule that points to the set.
 4) send batch to the kernel.

This also introduces an internal set ID (NFTA_SET_ID) that is unique
in the batch so set elements and rules can refer to new sets.

Backward compatibility has been only retained in userspace, this
means that new nft versions can talk to the kernel both in the new
and the old fashion.

nfacct objects already support accounting at the byte and packet
level.  As such it is a natural extension to add the possiblity to
define a ceiling limit for both metrics.

All the support for quotas itself is added to nfnetlink acctounting
framework to stay coherent with current accounting object management.
Quota limit checks are implemented in xt_nfacct filter where
statistic collection is already done.

Pablo Neira Ayuso has also contributed to this feature.

NFT_META_BRI_IIFNAME to get packet input bridge interface name
NFT_META_BRI_OIFNAME to get packet output bridge interface name

Such meta key are accessible only through NFPROTO_BRIDGE family, on a
dedicated nft meta module: nft_meta_bridge.

The current set selection simply choses the first set type that provides
the requested features, which always results in the rbtree being chosen
by virtue of being the first set in the list.

What we actually want to do is choose the implementation that can provide
the requested features and is optimal from either a performance or memory
perspective depending on the characteristics of the elements and the
preferences specified by the user.

The elements are not known when creating a set. Even if we would provide
them for anonymous (literal) sets, we'd still have standalone sets where
the elements are not known in advance. We therefore need an abstract
description of the data charcteristics.

The kernel already knows the size of the key, this patch starts by
introducing a nested set description which so far contains only the maximum
amount of elements. Based on this the set implementations are changed to
provide an estimate of the required amount of memory and the lookup
complexity class.

The set ops have a new callback ->estimate() that is invoked during set
selection. It receives a structure containing the attributes known to the
kernel and is supposed to populate a struct nft_set_estimate with the
complexity class and, in case the size is known, the complete amount of
memory required, or the amount of memory required per element otherwise.

Based on the policy specified by the user (performance/memory, defaulting
to performance) the kernel will then select the best suited implementation.

Even if the set implementation would allow to add more than the specified
maximum amount of elements, they are enforced since new implementations
might not be able to add more than maximum based on which they were
selected.

Adds a new property for hash set types, where if a set is created
with the 'forceadd' option and the set becomes full the next addition
to the set may succeed and evict a random entry from the set.

To keep overhead low eviction is done very simply. It checks to see
which bucket the new entry would be added. If the bucket's pos value
is non-zero (meaning there's at least one entry in the bucket) it
replaces the first entry in the bucket. If pos is zero, then it continues
down the normal add process.

This property is useful if you have a set for 'ban' lists where it may
not matter if you release some entries from the set early.

commit 2dfb973c0dcc6d2211 (add markmask for hash:ip,mark data type)
inserted IPSET_ATTR_MARKMASK in-between other enum values, i.e.
changing values of all further attributes.  This causes 'ipset list'
segfault on existing kernels since ipset no longer finds
IPSET_ATTR_MEMSIZE (it has a different value on kernel side).

Jozsef points out it should be moved below IPSET_ATTR_MARK which
works since there is some extra reserved space after that value.

Introduce packet mark mask for hash:ip,mark data type. This allows to
set mark bit filter for the ip set.

Introduce packet mark support with new ip,mark hash set. This includes
userspace and kernelspace code, hash:ip,mark set tests and man page
updates.

The intended use of ip,mark set is similar to the ip:port type, but for
protocols which don't use a predictable port number. Instead of port
number it matches a firewall mark determined by a layer 7 filtering
program like opendpi.

As well as allowing or blocking traffic it will also be used for
accounting packets and bytes sent for each protocol.
