Nftables New Chain implementation
Implements functionality for adding a new base chain and/or regular chain to a
netfilter table. This includes chain flags, user-metadata, handles, policies,
and hook attribute data.
Certain flags like NFTA_CHAIN_COUNTERS were left as explicitly unsupported for
now.
Finally, adding base chains specifically for the netdev family and at the
Ingress and Egress hooks have been explicitly left unsupported for now.
Updating already existing chains have also been explicitly left unsupported
for now, both of which will be implemented in a future change.
