netfilter: nf_tables: adapt set backend to use GC transaction API



commit f6c383b8c31a93752a52697f8430a71dcbc46adf upstream.

Use the GC transaction API to replace the old and buggy gc API and the
busy mark approach.

No set elements are removed from async garbage collection anymore,
instead the _DEAD bit is set on so the set element is not visible from
lookup path anymore. Async GC enqueues transaction work that might be
aborted and retried later.

rbtree and pipapo set backends does not set on the _DEAD bit from the
sync GC path since this runs in control plane path where mutex is held.
In this case, set elements are deactivated, removed and then released
via RCU callback, sync GC never fails.

Fixes: 3c4287f62044 ("nf_tables: Add set type for arbitrary concatenation of ranges")
Fixes: 8d8540c4 ("netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: add timeout support")
Fixes: 9d098292 ("netfilter: nft_hash: add support for timeouts")
