netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: don't gc elements on insert
During insertion we can queue up expired elements for garbage
collection.
In case of later abort, the commit hook will never be called.
Packet path and 'get' requests will find free'd elements in the
binary search blob:

nfnetlink_rcv_msg+0x8ae/0x12c0 net/netfilter/nfnetlink.c:290
Also, when we insert an element that triggers -EEXIST, and that insertion
happens to also zap a timed-out entry, we end up with same issue:
Neither commit nor abort hook is called.
Fix this by removing gc api usage during insertion.
The blamed commit also removes concurrency of the rbtree with the
packet path, so we can now safely rb_erase() the element and move
it to a new expired list that can be reaped in the commit hook
before building the next blob iteration.
This also avoids the need to rebuild the blob in the abort path:
Expired elements seen during insertion attempts are kept around
until a transaction passes.
