src: fix routing header support
We can't use nft_exthdr_op to encode routing header, it breaks
ipv6 extension header support.
When encountering RT header, userspace did now set a new ipv6 exthdr mode,
but old kernel doesn't know about this, so this failed with -EOPNOTSUPP.
Revert that part and use NFT_EXTHDR_OP_IPV6.
When decoding a routing extension header, try the various route
types until we find a match.
Note this patch isn't complete:
'srh tag 127' creates following expressions:
[ exthdr load 2b @ 43 + 6 => reg 1 ]
[ cmp eq reg 1 0x00007f00 ]
It should instead insert a dependency test ("rt type 4"):
[ exthdr load 1b @ 43 + 2 => reg 1 ]
[ cmp eq reg 1 0x00000004 ]
[ exthdr load 2b @ 43 + 6 => reg 1 ]
[ cmp eq reg 1 0x00007e00 ]
nft should then use this to infer the routing header type.
While add it, document the srh option.
