netfilter: conntrack: revert ct extension genid infrastructure

[ Upstream commit 35e21a4 ]

This infrastructure is not used anymore after moving ct timeout and
helper to use datapath refcount to track object use.

Revert commit c56716c ("netfilter: extensions: introduce extension
genid count") this patch disables all ct extensions (leading to NULL)
for unconfirmed conntracks, when this is only targeted at ct helper and
ct timeout. There is also codebase that dereferences the ct extension
without checking for NULL which could lead to crash.

Fixes: c56716c ("netfilter: extensions: introduce extension genid count")
