netfilter: allow to turn off xtables compat layer
The compat layer needs to parse untrusted input (the ruleset) to translate it to a 64bit compatible format. We had a number of bugs in this department in the past, so allow users to turn this feature off. Add CONFIG_NETFILTER_XTABLES_COMPAT kconfig knob and make it default to y to keep existing behaviour.
