netfilter: Add MODULE_DESCRIPTION entries to kernel modules

The user tool modinfo is used to get information on kernel modules, including a
description where it is available.

This patch adds a brief MODULE_DESCRIPTION to netfilter kernel modules
(descriptions taken from Kconfig file or code comments)

netfilter: nat: remove nf_nat_l3proto.h and nf_nat_core.h

The l3proto name is gone, its header file is the last trace.
While at it, also remove nf_nat_core.h, its very small and all users
include nf_nat.h too.

before:
text data bss dec hex filename
22948 1612 4136 28696 7018 nf_nat.ko

after removal of l3proto register/unregister functions:
text data bss dec hex filename
22196 1516 4136 27848 6cc8 nf_nat.ko

checkpatch complains about overly long lines, but line breaks
do not make things more readable and the line length gets smaller
here, not larger.

netfilter: xt_nat: fix DNAT target for shifted portmap ranges

The commit 2eb0f624b709 ("netfilter: add NAT support for shifted
portmap ranges") did not set the checkentry/destroy callbacks for
the newly added DNAT target. As a result, rulesets using only
such nat targets are not effective, as the relevant conntrack hooks
are not enabled.
The above affect also nft_compat rulesets.
Fix the issue adding the missing initializers.

netfilter: add NAT support for shifted portmap ranges

This is a patch proposal to support shifted ranges in portmaps. (i.e. tcp/udp
incoming port 5000-5100 on WAN redirected to LAN 192.168.1.5:2000-2100)

Currently DNAT only works for single port or identical port ranges. (i.e.
ports 5000-5100 on WAN interface redirected to a LAN host while original
destination port is not altered) When different port ranges are configured,
either 'random' mode should be used, or else all incoming connections are
mapped onto the first port in the redirect range. (in described example
WAN:5000-5100 will all be mapped to 192.168.1.5:2000)

This patch introduces a new mode indicated by flag NF_NAT_RANGE_PROTO_OFFSET
which uses a base port value to calculate an offset with the destination port
present in the incoming stream. That offset is then applied as index within the
redirect port range (index modulo rangewidth to handle range overflow).

In described example the base port would be 5000. An incoming stream with
destination port 5004 would result in an offset value 4 which means that the
NAT'ed stream will be using destination port 2004.

Other possibilities include deterministic mapping of larger or multiple ranges
to a smaller range : WAN:5000-5999 -> LAN:5000-5099 (maps WAN port 5*xx to port
51xx)

This patch does not change any current behavior. It just adds new NAT proto
range functionality which must be selected via the specific flag when intended
to use.

A patch for iptables (libipt_DNAT.c + libip6t_DNAT.c) will also be proposed
which makes this functionality immediately available.

netfilter: nat: add dependencies on conntrack module

MASQUERADE, S/DNAT and REDIRECT already call functions that depend on the
conntrack module.

However, since the conntrack hooks are now registered in a lazy fashion
(i.e., only when needed) a symbol reference is not enough.

Thus, when something is added to a nat table, make sure that it will see
packets by calling nf_ct_netns_get() which will register the conntrack
hooks in the current netns.

An alternative would be to add these dependencies to the NAT table.

However, that has problems when using non-modular builds -- we might
register e.g. ipv6 conntrack before its initcall has run, leading to NULL
deref crashes since its per-netns storage has not yet been allocated.

Adding the dependency in the modules instead has the advantage that nat
table also does not register its hooks until rules are added.

In (c7232c9 netfilter: add protocol independent NAT core), the

SNAT hooks are POST_ROUTING and LOCAL_IN (before it was LOCAL_OUT).
DNAT hooks are PRE_ROUTING and LOCAL_OUT (before it was LOCAL_IN).
