Major NPF improvements (merge from upstream):
- Switch to the C11-style atomic primitives using atomic_loadstore(9).
- npfkern: introduce the 'state.key.interface' and 'state.key.direction' settings. Users can now choose whether the connection state should be strictly per-interface or global at the configuration level. Keep NAT logic to be always per-interface, though.
- npfkern: rewrite the G/C worker logic and make it self-tuning.
- npfkern and libnpf: multiple bug fixes; add param exporting; introduce more parameters. Remove npf_nvlist_{copyin,copyout}() functions and refactor npfctl_load_nvlist() with others; add npfctl_run_op() to have a single entry point for operations. Introduce npf_flow_t and clean up some code.
- npfctl: lots of fixes for the 'npfctl show' logic; make 'npfctl list' more informative; misc usability improvements and more user-friendly error messages.
- Amend and improve the manual pages.

branches: 1.1.10; NPF improvements: - Add support for dynamic NETMAP algorithm (stateful net-to-net). - Add most of the support for the dynamic NAT rules; a little bit more userland work is needed to finish this up and enable. - Replace 'stateful-ends' with more permissive 'stateful-all'. - Add various tunable parameters and document them, see npf-params(7). - Reduce the memory usage of the connection state table (conndb). - Portmap rewrite: use memory more efficiently, handle addresses dynamically. - Bug fix: add splsoftnet()/splx() around the thmap writers and comment. - npftest: clean up and simplify; fix some memleaks to make ASAN happy.
