The dumping of table objects can be inconsistent when interfering with the
preparation phase of our 2-phase commit protocol because:
1) We remove objects from the lists during the preparation phase, that can be
added re-added from the abort step. Thus, we may miss objects that are still
active.
2) We add new objects to the lists during the preparation phase, so we may get
objects that are not yet active with an internal flag set.
We can resolve this problem with generation masks, as we already do for rules
when we expose them to the packet path.
After this change, we always obtain a consistent list as long as we stay in the
same generation. The userspace side can detect interferences through the
generation counter. If so, it needs to restart.
As a result, we can get rid of the internal NFT_TABLE_INACTIVE flag.
