nh: fix scope used to find saddr when adding non gw nh
[ Upstream commit bac0f937c343d651874f83b265ca8f5070ed4f06 ]
As explained by Julian, fib_nh_scope is related to fib_nh_gw4, but
fib_info_update_nhc_saddr() needs the scope of the route, which is
the scope "before" fib_nh_scope, ie fib_nh_scope - 1.
This patch fixes the problem described in commit 747c14307214 ("ip: fix
dflt addr selection for connected nexthop").
Fixes: 597cfe4fc339 ("nexthop: Add support for IPv4 nexthops")
