netfilter: nft_set_hash: mark set element as dead when deleting from packet path
upstream c92db3030492b8ad1d0faace7a93bbcf53850d0c commit.
Set on the NFT_SET_ELEM_DEAD_BIT flag on this element, instead of
performing element removal which might race with an ongoing transaction.
Enable gc when dynamic flag is set on since dynset deletion requires
garbage collection after this patch.
Fixes: d0a8d877da97 ("netfilter: nft_dynset: support for element deletion")
