netfilter: nft_ct: add helper set support
this allows to assign connection tracking helpers to connections via nft objref infrastructure. The idea is to first specifiy a helper object: table ip filter { ct helper some-name { type "ftp" protocol tcp l3proto ip } } and then assign it via nft add ... ct helper set "some-name" helper assignment works for new conntracks only as we cannot expand the conntrack extension area once it has been committed to the main conntrack table. ipv4 and ipv6 protocols are tracked stored separately so we can also handle families that observe both ipv4 and ipv6 traffic.
