cmd: incorrect error reporting when table declaration exists

This example ruleset is missing the chain declaration:

 add table x
 add set x y { typeof ip saddr ; }
 add rule x y counter

After this patch, error reporting provides suggestions for the missing
chain:

 # nft -f ruleset.nft
 ruleset.nft:3:12-12: Error: No such file or directory; did you mean chain ‘INPUT’ in table ip ‘filter’?
 add rule x y counter
            ^

Before this patch, it incorrectly refers to the table:

 ruleset.nft:3:10-10: Error: No such file or directory; did you mean table ‘filter’ in family ip?
 add rule x y counter
          ^

This patch invalidates the table that is found via fuzzy lookup if it
exists in the cache.
