Allows to build kernel that supports the arptables mangle target via nftables' compat infra but without the arptables get/setsockopt interface or the old arptables filter interpreter. IOW, setting IP_NF_ARPFILTER=n will break arptables-legacy, but arptables-nft will continue to work as long as nftables compat support is enabled.
