Drop nft_set_type's ability to act as a container of multiple backend
implementations it chooses from. Instead consolidate the whole selection
logic in nft_select_set_ops() and the actual backend provided estimate()
callback.
This turns nf_tables_set_types into a list containing all available
backends which is traversed when selecting one matching userspace
requested criteria.
Also, this change allows to embed nft_set_ops structure into
nft_set_type and pull flags field into the latter as it's only used
during selection phase.
A crucial part of this change is to make sure the new layout respects
hash backend constraints formerly enforced by nft_hash_select_ops()
function: This is achieved by introduction of a specific estimate()
callback for nft_hash_fast_ops which returns false for key lengths != 4.
In turn, nft_hash_estimate() is changed to return false for key lengths
== 4 so it won't be chosen by accident. Also, both callbacks must return
false for unbounded sets as their size estimate depends on a known
maximum element count.
Note that this patch partially reverts commit 4f2921ca21 ("netfilter:
nf_tables: meter: pick a set backend that supports updates") by making
nft_set_ops_candidate() not explicitly look for an update callback but
make NFT_SET_EVAL a regular backend feature flag which is checked along
with the others. This way all feature requirements are checked in one
go.

This patch adds a new get operation to look up for specific elements in
a set via netlink interface. You can also use it to check if an interval
already exists.

This patch adds the infrastructure to support several implementations of
the same set type. This selection will be based on the set description
and the features available for this set. This allow us to select set
backend implementation that will result in better performance numbers.

Element comments may come without any prior set flag, so we have to keep
a list of dummy struct nft_set_ext to keep this information around. This
is only useful for set dumps to userspace. From the packet path, this
set type relies on the bitmap representation. This patch simplifies the
logic since we don't need to allocate the dummy nft_set_ext structure
anymore on the fly at the cost of increasing memory consumption because
of the list of dummy struct nft_set_ext.

Currently we just assume the element key as a u32 integer, regardless of
the set key length.
This is incorrect, for example, the tcp port number is only 16 bits.
So when we use the nft_payload expr to get the tcp dport and store
it to dreg, the dport will be stored at 0~15 bits, and 16~31 bits
will be padded with zero.
So the reg->data[dreg] will be looked like as below:
0 15 31
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| tcp dport | 0 |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
But for these big-endian systems, if we treate this register as a u32
integer, the element key will be larger than 65535, so the following
lookup in bitmap set will cause out of bound access.
Another issue is that if we add element with comments in bitmap
set(although the comments will be ignored eventually), the element will
vanish strangely. Because we treate the element key as a u32 integer, so
the comments will become the part of the element key, then the element
key will also be larger than 65535 and out of bound access will happen:
# nft add element t s { 1 comment test }
Since set->klen is 1 or 2, it's fine to treate the element key as a u8 or
u16 integer.

priv->bitmap_size stores the real bitmap size, instead of the full
struct nft_bitmap object.

This patch adds a new bitmap set type. This bitmap uses two bits to
represent one element. These two bits determine the element state in the
current and the future generation that fits into the nf_tables commit
protocol. When dumping elements back to userspace, the two bits are
expanded into a struct nft_set_ext object.
If no NFTA_SET_DESC_SIZE is specified, the existing automatic set
backend selection prefers bitmap over hash in case of keys whose size is
<= 16 bit. If the set size is know, the bitmap set type is selected if
with 16 bit kets and more than 390 elements in the set, otherwise the
hash table set implementation is used.
For 8 bit keys, the bitmap consumes 66 bytes. For 16 bit keys, the
bitmap takes 16388 bytes.
