Fernando Fernandez Mancera dde1a6084c selftests: nft_queue.sh: add a parallel stress test
Introduce a new stress test to check for race conditions in the
nfnetlink_queue subsystem, where an entry is freed while another CPU is
concurrently walking the global rhashtable.

To trigger this, `nf_queue.c` is extended with two new flags:
  * -O (out-of-order): Buffers packet IDs and flushes them in reverse.
  * -b (bogus verdicts): Floods the kernel with non-existent packet IDs.

The bogus verdict loop forces the kernel's lookup function to perform
full rhashtable bucket traversals (-ENOENT). Combined with reverse-order
flushing and heavy parallel UDP/ping flooding across 8 queues, this puts
the nfnetlink_queue code under pressure.

Joint work with Florian Westphal.
