net: always walk through filters in reverse if traffic is egress
Previously, if we attach more than one filters for a single netdev, both ingress and egress traffic will go through net filters in same order like: ingress: netdev ->filter1 ->filter2 ->...filter[n] ->emulated device egress: emulated device ->filter1 ->filter2 ->...filter[n] ->netdev. This is against the natural feeling and will complicate filters configuration since in some scenes, we hope filters handle the egress traffic in a reverse order. For example, in colo-proxy (will be implemented later), we have a redirector filter and a colo-rewriter filter, we need the filter behave like: ingress(->)/egress(<-): chardev<->redirector<->colo-rewriter<->emulated device Since both buffer filter and dump do not require strict order of filters, this patch switches to always let egress traffic walk through net filters in reverse to simplify the possible filters configuration in the future.
