[PATCH v3 nf-next] netfilter: enable set expiration time for set elements

[PATCH v3 nf-next] netfilter: enable set expiration time for set elements

[Laura Garcia Liebana]

Currently, the expiration of every element in a set or map
is a read-only parameter generated at kernel side.

This change will permit to set a certain expiration date
per element that will be required, for example, during
stateful replication among several nodes.

This patch handles the NFTA_SET_ELEM_EXPIRATION in order
to configure the expiration parameter per element, or
will use the timeout in the case that the expiration
is not set.

v3:
   - remove the expiration priv attribute
v2:
   - set always expiration 0 in nft_dynset_new()
