Previously, replacing a connection tracking steering entry was done by
adding a new rule (with the same tag but possibly different mod hdr
actions/labels) then removing the old rule.
This approach doesn't work in hardware steering because two steering
entries with the same tag cannot coexist in a hardware steering table.
This commit prepares for that by adding a new ct_rule_update operation on
the ct_fs_ops struct which is used instead of add+delete.
Implementations for both dmfs (firmware steering) and smfs (software
steering) are provided, which simply add the new rule and delete the old
one.
