The xtables_target struct has a `udata` member which I think would be
suitable.  libxt_RATEEST does something similar.  I've attached a patch
which should apply cleanly on top of yours.

Here's an example:

  $ sudo /usr/local/sbin/iptables-nft -A INPUT -j NFLOG --nflog-prefix '0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef|0123456789ABCDEF0123456789ABCDEF0123456789ABCDEF0123456789ABCDEF|'
  $ sudo /usr/local/sbin/iptables-nft -L INPUT
  # Warning: iptables-legacy tables present, use iptables-legacy to see them
  Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
  target     prot opt source               destination
  NFLOG      all  --  anywhere             anywhere             nflog-prefix  0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0123456789abcde
  $ sudo nft list ruleset
  table ip filter {
          chain INPUT {
                  type filter hook input priority filter; policy accept;
                  counter packets 113 bytes 8894 log prefix "0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef|0123456789ABCDEF0123456789ABCDEF0123456789ABCDEF0123456789ABCD"
          }
  }

One note about formatting: you've used four spaces for indentation, but
Netfilter uses tabs.

Subject: [PATCH] extensions: libxt_NFLOG: use udata to store longer prefixes
 suitable for the nft log statement.

NFLOG truncates the log-prefix to 64 characters which is the limit
supported by iptables-legacy.  We now store the longer 128-character
prefix in struct xtables_target's udata member for use by iptables-nft.
