net/sched: act_ct: Offload established connections to flow table

Browse source

Add a ft entry when connections enter an established state and delete
the connections when they leave the established state.

The flow table assumes ownership of the connection. In the following
patch act_ct will lookup the ct state from the FT. In future patches,
drivers will register for callbacks for ft add/del events and will be
able to use the information to offload the connections.

Note that connection aging is managed by the FT.
