[RFC][PATCH 3/5] IPVS: make friends with nf_conntrack

[Hannes Eder]

From: Hannes Eder <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

We aim at adding full NAT support to IPVS.  With this patch it is
possible to use netfilters SNAT in POSTROUTING, especially with
xt_ipvs, e.g.:

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -m ipvs --vaddr 192.168.100.30/32 --vport 8080 \
	-j SNAT --to-source 192.168.10.10

There might be other use cases.

Current Status:
  - NAT works
  - DR works
  - IPIP not tested
  - overall: needs more testing
  - Performance impact?
