netfilter: Use flowlabel flow key when re-routing mangled packets
[ Upstream commit 6f8f132cc7bac2ac76911e47d5baa378aafda4cb ]
'ip6 dscp set $v' in an nftables outpute route chain has no effect.
While nftables does detect the dscp change and calls the reroute hook.
But ip6_route_me_harder never sets the dscp/flowlabel:
flowlabel/dsfield routing rules are ignored and no reroute takes place.
Thanks to Yi Chen for an excellent reproducer script that I used
to validate this change.
