by nhofmeyrper-HNB GTP-U traffic counters via nft
Add optional feature: retrieve GTP-U traffic counters using nftables.
Add compile-time switch --enable-nftables, to build with/without
external dependency libnftables. Default is without, as before.
Add configure-time switch 'hnbgw' / 'nft-kpi' to enable use of nftables.
This requires osmo-hnbgw to be run with cap_net_admin.
The VTY config commands are always visible -- simplifies VTY testing.
Refuse to start osmo-hnbgw when requesting nft-kpi in the config but
when built without --enable-nftables.
When an hNodeB registers, set up nftables rules to count GTP-U packets
(UDP port 2152) to and from that hNodeB's address -- we are assuming
that it is the same address that Iuh is connecting from.
This is a "workaround" to get performance indicators per hNodeB, without
needing a UPF that supports URR.
This patch reads counters from the nftables response using "manual"
string parsing. See also Id4e7fa017c31945388a010d8581715d71482116b which
modifies this to full JSON parsing.
