netfilter: nf_tables: consolide set element destruction
With the conversion to set extensions, it is now possible to consolidate the different set element destruction functions. The set implementations' ->remove() functions are changed to only take the element out of their internal data structures. Elements will be freed in a batched fashion after the global transaction's completion RCU grace period. This reduces the amount of grace periods required for nft_hash from N to zero additional ones, additionally this guarantees that the set elements' extensions of all implementations can be used under RCU protection.
